12 activities

Occasions when the Coast Guard recorded this hull under the same Activity id as another vessel — a tug and the barges in its tow, inspected together. This reveals working relationships that appear nowhere else.

Casualty and incident record

10 recorded

Incidents the Coast Guard investigated in which this hull appears, with the role it was recorded in. A vessel present at an incident did not necessarily have a casualty — the role column is not collapsed.

7 December 2018RoutineOn December 7, 2018, the US flagged tug KAREN ANDRIE was underway in Canadian waters with 8 crewmembers transiting from Whiting, IN to Tracey, Quebec, Canada pushing the barge ENDEAVOUR, loaded with asphalt, when the vessel experienced a loss of power. The vessel's port generator bearing failed causing the generator to spark and catch fire. The emergency stop was activated on the port generator causing the vessel to go dark for approximately 10 seconds resulting in a loss of maneuverability. The vessel's crew switched over to the barge's generator and restored complete power to the tug. TheInvolved in a Marine Casualty
20 November 2007RoutineCG Sector Detroit received a phone call from the Tug KAREN ANDRIE reporting a generator OOC on the Barge A-397 caused by a 1" crack in fuel tank above fuel line allowing water to get in day tank and drawn into the generator causing shutdown. Fuel was pumped out of tank into alternate tank and no pollution reported. Barge cargo tanks were in ballast at time of incident. Intentions of vessel are to effect permanent repairs and be approved by attending ABS Surveyor and CG Marine Inspector prior to departure from MI Marine Terminal. 20 NOV 07, ABS SURVEYOR observed repairs and hose test and weInvolved in a Marine Investigation (non-casualty)

11 July 2007RoutineAt 0612 a barge sustained an approximate 18" X 12" hole to the forward rake on the starboard side due to an allision with the corner of the Black Rock Lock gate. The Coast Guard was contacted, investigated the incident, and allowed a temporary repair to be made to the affected area, in order to allow the vessel to transit for permanent repairs to their next port of call. Error in judgment. No actionable negligence.Involved in a Marine Investigation (non-casualty)

9 January 2007RoutineTug Karen Andre and Barge A-397 were deparing the dock during high winds. Tug Andre was in the process of taking Barge A-397 in a stern tow after previously pushing ahead. Forward breakaway line on A-397 parted, however the aft breakaway line did not, causing the port stern to swing into the dock. Contact between the dock and the barge caused a puncture in the fuel tank. No fuel was discharged due to low fuel levels.Involved in a Marine Casualty

Operator of record

1 operator · 2013–2023

Who filed this hull in the US Army Corps of Engineers’ annual commercial statistics return, by year. Maury matched these records to this hull on its US official number. A change of filed operator is not proof of a sale — it can equally be a restructuring, a bareboat charter, or a change in who files. The 2019 return lists vessels but not operator names; where this hull is absent from it, a change spanning 2018 to 2020 is counted once and may be two.

Changes in fleet association

No change of operator of record across the years this hull appears in the Corps’ returns. That is a statement about the filed record, not about ownership.

Documentation on record

Documentation the Coast Guard's vessel service returns for this hull. This endpoint returns current documentation, so an older hull may show little or none.

How this hull's record compares

176 vessels

These are facts about a population, not a judgement about this vessel. A higher count can mean a hull was inspected more often rather than found worse, and Maury has published its own finding that recorded deficiency history shows no measurable relationship to later casualties. Read these as context, not as a score.

Cohort: 176 vessels of type Towing Vessel, built 1960–1970, within 15% of this hull's recorded length. Drawn from the same archive as this report.

What this report does not tell you

This is a record, not an assessment. Maury does not score, rate, or grade vessels, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy, lend against, charter, or insure this hull. Thalor built a computed compliance-status field, audited it across forty years, and deleted it: a third of the vessels it flagged critical were flagged on a single blank cell. Every figure above is what the Coast Guard wrote down. The judgement is yours.

Recorded is not the same as occurred. A deficiency that was never written down is not here. An inspection that never happened produces no record, and a hull that was rarely visited will show a short chronology for that reason alone rather than because little was found.

Coverage is uneven, by district and by date. Roughly 41.1% of all records in this archive come from a single Coast Guard district — predominantly the Mississippi–Ohio inland river system. Specific date ranges failed at source and are documented publicly. Any national reading of these figures should carry that concentration with it.

Scope is set by the Coast Guard's own class label. Maury publishes vessels the USCG classes as Barge or Towing Vessel. That is not the same as every barge and towing vessel in the United States, and the difference cannot be measured from the labels themselves.

Personal information has been removed from free text. Inspector narratives carry names, telephone numbers and credential numbers. These were filtered between the database and this page. Nothing else in the quoted text has been altered.

Corrections are welcome and are published. If a fact here is wrong, Maury will show your correction alongside the record. The archive is never silently edited.
