Years with a record
30 calendar years (1993–2026)
Every line above is a count of records the US Coast Guard wrote, or a date it recorded.
The counts in the strip above are the same counts; this table splits the inspections by
the kind of activity recorded. A blank resolution means none was recorded in this data; it
does not establish that a deficiency is outstanding. Years with a record are calendar
years in which a record exists, not years in service.

Registered and ITC measurements are two systems and are never combined. One snapshot is held so far; documentation history begins with the next.
Vessel history report
Every record for this hull, in one document — $299
What it gives that this page does not: the whole record in one dated, citable document — every line with its Coast Guard activity id, the retrieval date on the cover, built to print to PDF with its page breaks — that a surveyor can attach and a lender can file. The same facts as this page, complete and in one file.
Every recorded inspection, 1980 to 2026 for this class, in one chronology · every deficiency, with system, dates and resolution · operational controls imposed and removed · every name this hull has been recorded under · the vessels it was inspected alongside, and when · how its record compares with hulls of similar age and size, as a fact about the population and never a judgement about this vessel.
Read one first, in full: a forty-year chronology · a hull that changed operators four times · the sparse case, shown as an example, not for sale.
A request, not a checkout: leave an email and Maury replies once, with the dated document for this hull and a Stripe invoice for $299. Nothing is charged before the document is in your hands.

The Coast Guard recorded this vessel and the following in the same inspection activity — normally a tug and the barges in its tow. A recreational or unclassed hull in the same activity is held and not published, so it does not appear here: these lists are a floor, not a complete manifest.

Deficiency record · 8
08 - Alarms › N/A - No Subsystem › Other (alarms)
Issued 7 April 2026
Resolved
Each towing vessel must have a reliable means to provide notification when an emergency condition exists: high bilge alarms. Vessel's high bilge alarm did not provide audible or visual alert in the wheelhouse. Replace/repair wheelhouse audible/visual alarm for engine room high bilge levels.
09 - Working and Living Conditions › 092 - Working Conditions › Protection machinery
Issued 7 April 2026
Resolved
Pressure vessels over 5 cubic feet in volume and over 15 lbs/square inch must be equipped with one or more spring-loaded relief valves to prevent pressure from exceeding the MAWP by more than 10%. Existing relief valve was last tested Jan of 2023. Install new pressure relief valve not exceeding 200psi (MAWP) by more than 10% for the vessel's #1 receiver. Or, as an alternative, test valve, ensure proper operation, and document test.
02 - Structural Conditions › N/A - No Subsystem › Closing devices/watertight doors
Issued 7 April 2026
Resolved
A towing vessel must be maintained and operated so the watertight integrity and stability of the vessel are not compromised. Vessel’s forward void was found to have excessive water in space. Remove water in void and ensure gaskets are adequate to prevent further water intrusion.
08 - Alarms › N/A - No Subsystem › Other (alarms)
Issued 7 April 2026
Resolved
A towing vessel with overnight accommodations and alternating watches. . . must have a system to detect when its master or mate (pilot) becomes incapacitated. Vessel's crew stated the system was operational, however they could not test the system to prove proper operation. Provide documentation on board the vessel outlining the steps necessary to test the system. Prove proper operation and ensure these tests are conducted and documented as required by vessel's TSMS and 46 CFR 143.245(b). Vessel may operate for 14 days provided there is an extra person provided in the pilothouse.
13 - Propulsion and Auxiliary Machinery › N/A - No Subsystem › Propulsion main engine
Issued 14 February 2020
Resolved
Machinery and electrical systems must be designed and maintained to provide for safe operation of the towing vessel and safety of persons on board during normal and emergency operations. Vessel's port main engine suffered a fire on or about the turbocharger. Repair port main engine and any damaged wiring and lighting in the engine room to the satisfaction of the TPO and CG Marine Inspector.
13 - Propulsion and Auxiliary Machinery › N/A - No Subsystem › Other (machinery)
Issued 14 February 2020
Resolved
To stop the flow of fuel in the event of a fire or break in the fuel line a remote fuel shut off valve must be fitted on any fuel line that supplies fuel directly to the propulsion engine. The port and starboard emergency fuel shut off valves for both main engines did not secure the fuel when actuated during an engine room fire. Repair and test to the satisfaction of the TPO and CG Marine Inspector.
07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Fire fighting equipment and appliances
Issued 14 February 2020
Resolved
Towing vessels of more than 65 feet in length must carry at least the minimum number of hand portable fire extinguishers set forth in Table 142.230(d)(2). Vessel crew used 3+ portable fire extinguishers to fight an engine room fire. Recharge or replace the extinguishers as required by the vessel's COI to the satisfaction of the TPO and CG Marine Inspector.

Each line is an incident investigation the Coast Guard recorded with this hull among the vessels involved, with the date and the classification the Coast Guard gave it. Involvement is not fault. The investigation narrative is not published. Source: IIR, through 2026.
Ownership record
The Coast Guard's documentation record for this hull -- the Abstract of Title,
with its owners and liens as filed -- is not in PSIX. Ask, and Maury buys it from the National
Vessel Documentation Center, files it here with its date, and every reader of this page gets it.
