SARA JO is a 1975 commercial fishing vessel. The Coast Guard has recorded 2 inspections in 2016, along with 5 casualty investigations between 2002 and 2016.
Records from 2002 to 2016. Most recent: inspection, 27 January 2016.
This record may be incomplete: the most recent inspection recorded for this vessel was 10 years ago. Maury shows what the Coast Guard recorded, not whether the vessel has been inspected since, is still in service, or what condition it is in. Coast Guard record current through 23 August 2026, retrieved 5 September 2026 from PSIX. Every field on this page was recorded by the Coast Guard. Records for the Fishing Vessel class in Maury's sources begin in 2016.
This is a sparse record, and that is what the archive holds. 2 inspections recorded in 2016, and no deficiencies were written. This vessel does not appear elsewhere in the 2016–2026 record for its class. An absent record is not evidence of compliance, and it is not evidence of a problem — it is the absence of a record.
Every line above is a count of records the US Coast Guard wrote, or a date it 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. What Maury does
not do.

This hull's Official Number is not in the NVDC file dated 10 August 2026 as served by NOAA Fisheries, so no documentation record is shown. Absence from that file is a fact about the file, not about the hull.
Vessel history report
A report is not offered for this hull. Its Coast Guard record spans fewer than two calendar years. That is a statement about the record, not about the vessel. What a sparse-record report looks like.

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.
