The Responder class is class of oil recovery vessels, built in 1992 and 1993.[1]

These vessels can deploy a boom, and use it to suck up leaks of oil, and other liquids that float on water.[1] They also have room to provide a command center when it is joined by smaller oil recovery vessels.

The vessels require on a crew of 6 mariners. The boom requires an additional 7 oil recovery specialists. The vessels can carry a complement of 38.[1]

The Pacific Responder was the first vessel launched.
