Coast Guard recorded. Years with a record are calendar years in which a record exists, not
years in service. What Maury does not do.

13 - Propulsion and Auxiliary Machinery › N/A - No Subsystem › Propulsion main engine
Issued 12 January 2023
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 under normal and emergency conditions. The starboard ahead clutch locked causing the main diesel engine to experience a loss of propulsion. The ITV GERALD MAJORS must tie up with H. MERRITT "HEAVY" LANE, JR (O.N. 1300155) and proceed to MM 954 LMR to drop off the tow. After the tow is dropped off, the ITV GERALD MAJORS must light boat to National Maintenance in Paducah, KY for repairs. All repairs and tests must be to the satisfaction of the TPO (TVIB). Also, TVIB surveyors must provide Sector Lower Mississippi River objective evidence that the starboard clutch assembly is repaired and that all tests were conducted satisfactory prior to commercial operations.

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, and the bridge, lock or dam the investigation names where it names one. 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.
