The total installed power of 4,176 kW (5,600 hp) gives her a top speed of 26 knots (48 km/h). Vigilant is fitted with twin Caterpillar 3516B DI-TA Elec engines driving twin 4-bladed controllable-pitch propellers through a pair of 3.5:1 reduction gearboxes. A 2,000-litre (440 imp gal) per minute fire fighting system for dealing with fires in other ships. The 7-metre (23 ft) Rigid Inflatable Boat can be launched from her stern slipway.

Much effort has been expended in making her quiet to reduce crew fatigue the engines are raft-mounted, decks throughout the ship are of a floating type, and the compartments are constructed on a box-within-a-box principle. She was built in 2003 in the Damen Shipyards in the Netherlands, and has a steel hull with an aluminium superstructure. Vigilant is the third of the Customs and Excise's fleet of 42-metre (138 ft) customs patrol vessels. Following transfer to the UK Border Agency this was shortened to the current "HMC" (Her Majesty's Cutter) and a new livery applied to the fleet of cutters. The Inland Revenue and HM Customs and Excise Departments merged to form HM Revenue and Customs on 18 April 2005, and from this time customs cutters changed their prefix from "HMRC" (Her Majesty's Revenue Cutter) to "HMCC" (Her Majesty's Customs Cutter).

She now operates as part of the UK Border Agency fleet of five cutters. In 2008, the fleet of customs cutters was transferred, along with border control duties, from HM Revenue and Customs to the newly formed UK Border Agency. Vigilant entered service for the British Government by the then HM Customs and Excise in 2004.
