  • O navio-faroleiro é um tipo de navio especializado.
  • Leuchtturmtender sind Arbeitsschiffe, die für die Versorgung und Wartung von Leuchttürmen auf kleinen Inseln oder Untiefen gebaut worden sind. Für die bemannten Leuchttürme, die nicht vom Festland zu erreichen waren, wurden weltweit Leuchtturmtender eingesetzt. Sie hatten Kabinen und Laderäume um Leuchtfeuerwärter, Techniker, Material und Versorgungsgüter zu den abgelegenen Stationen transportieren zu können. Betrieben wurden diese Schiffe zum Beispiel von den Commissioners of Irish Lights, dem Trinity House und Northern Lighthouse Board und der United States Coast Guard. * * * * *
  • 灯台見回り船（とうだいみまわりせん）または灯台巡視船（とうだいじゅんしせん）、灯台補給船（とうだいほきゅうせん）とは、灯台のメンテナンスを任務とする船舶である。灯台設備の消耗品の補充や、点検修理、灯台守への生活物資の補給などを行う。 1889年の「光丸」が日本初の灯台見回り船とされる。灯台の光（ひかり・こう）に由来して、船名には「ひめひかり」や「かいこう」などが用いられているが、例外として「羅州丸」や「宗谷　(船)」がいる。 現在の日本では海上保安庁に所属し、主に陸からたどり着けない場所にある灯浮標などの航路標識の点検整備を主な任務とする。排水量50トン以上を LM、未満を LS として分類する。500トン以上では LL となるが、海上保安庁では設標船と航路標識測定船に分類される。L は Light-House Service vessel の頭文字である。
