In 2005 the ship was transferred to Mexico, and she was commissioned in the Mexican Navy as ARM ''Río Tuxpan'' (BI-12), Mexico's first dedicated hydrographic survey ship. ==Construction and commissioning== ''Whiting'' was built at a cost of $2,300,000 (USD) as a "coastal survey ship" (CSS) for the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey by the Marietta Manufacturing Company at Point Pleasant, West Virginia.〔(NOAA History: Coast and Geodetic Survey Ships: Whiting )〕 She was launched on 20 November 1962 and delivered in July 1963.〔(Appendix E, pp. 12-16. )〕〔(''Ships of the NOAA Fleet'', Rockville, Maryland: United States Department of Commerce, June 1989 )〕〔(Polmar, Norman, ''The Naval Institute Guide to the Ships and Aircraft of the U.S. Fleet, Seventeenth Edition'', Naval Institute Press: Annapolis, Maryland, 2001, ISBN 1-55750-656-6, p. 614. )〕 The Coast and Geodetic Survey commissioned her on 8 July 1963〔 in a ceremony at New Orleans, Louisiana,〔(Invitation to commissioning ceremony of USC&GS Ship WHITING on July 8, 1963 )〕 as USC&GS ''Whiting'' (CSS 29),〔〔 the first and only Coast and Geodetic Survey ship of the name.
