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.

Vessel history report
Every record for this hull, in one document — $299
Every recorded inspection, 1972 to 2026, 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.
This report is in development and is not for sale yet. There is no date, and nothing is charged. Leave an email and we will tell you when it exists, once.
Used only to tell you when the report exists. Not shared, not sold, and not added to a mailing list.

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.

01 - Certificates & Documentation › 011 - Ships Certificates › Certificate of Inspection (COI)
Issued 12 May 2023
Resolved
A towing vessel may not be operated without having onboard a valid COI issued by the Coast Guard as required by § 136.202.
Complete COI inspection prior to conducting towing operations.
10 - Safety of Navigation › N/A - No Subsystem › Echo sounder
Issued 16 November 2021
Resolved
Towing vessels must be equipped with a Fathometer except when operating on Western Rivers.
07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Oil accumulation in engine room
Issued 21 February 2020
Resolved
All bilges and void spaces are kept free from
accumulation of combustible and flammable materials and
liquids insofar as practicable. Identified excessive amounts of oil throughout the engine room bilge, up to 12 inches of almost straight oil with minimal to no water, adjacent to the fuel trap in the centerline of the bilge, with oil also beneath the generators and main engines, posing an imminent hazard to the crew & environment, a serious substandard condition not being pro-actively managed. Remove all oil and clean the bilge in engine room, before vessel movement. 46CFR142.220(a)
07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Fire detection and alarm system
Issued 21 February 2020
Resolved
All fire detection systems must be serviced every 12 months. The fire detection panel upon arrival was missing both emergency power batteries which renders the panel useless if main power is lost, and in addition, no records of annual servicing could be found since the system was installed by a P.E. in 2012. Furthermore, crew had no means to test the fire detection system, obtain the proper method per the fire detection manufacturer manual. A proper servicing company needs to service the system, before vessel movement. 46CFR142.240(a)
07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Fire fighting equipment and appliances
Issued 21 February 2020
Resolved
A B–II portable fire extinguisher must be located near the storage room or cabinet. This is in addition to the portable fire extinguishers required by Tables 142.230(d)(1) and 142.230(d)(2) of § 142.230. This B-II extinguisher was missing from its required location, place a B-II there as soon as possible. 46CFR142.225(d)
04 - Emergency Systems › N/A - No Subsystem › Public address system
Issued 21 February 2020
Resolved
Each towing vessel must be fitted with a general alarm that is capable of notifying persons in any accommodation, work space, and the engine room. Vessel only had audio alarm in the galley, not audible in the engine room when machinery is running or the main deck, presenting a danger to the crew safety if an emergency arises. 46CFR143.235
09 - Working and Living Conditions › 091 - Living Conditions › Lighting (Accommodation)
Issued 21 February 2020
Resolved
Emergency lighting must be provided for all internal crew working and living areas. Emergency lighting sources must provide for sufficient illumination under emergency conditions to facilitate egress from each space. The only emergency lighting on the vessel was a dim/useless light near the fuel trap facing the bilge and the galley, and no sufficient lighting to help the crew escape from the bottom to the top of the engine room, nor lighting in the overnight bunk spaces for crew. Install at these areas and test under emergency power, prior to operating the vessel under its own power. 46 CFR 143.410
07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Fire detection and alarm system
Issued 21 February 2020
Resolved
Each towing vessel must be equipped with a means to detect smoke in the berthing spaces and lounges that
alerts individuals in those spaces. No smoke detectors installed in the crew bunk space near the wheelhouse creating a danger to crew safety if fire/smoke arises. 46 CFR 142.330(b)
03 - Water/Weathertight Conditions › N/A - No Subsystem › Covers (hatchway-, portable-, tarpaulins, etc.)
Issued 21 February 2020
Resolved
The master must ensure that all hatches, doors, and
other openings designed to be watertight or weathertight
function properly. Both the port and starboard shaft packings were leaking water at a steady rate, approximately a cup of water every 15 seconds, while the engines and shafts were stationary not under power, creating excessive water into the bilge. Tighten the shaft packing properly as designed. 46 CFR 140.610(b)
15 - Safety Management Systems (ISM) › N/A - No Subsystem › Masters responsibility and authority
Issued 21 February 2020
Resolved
The safety of the towing vessel is the responsibility of the master and includes: Compliance with the applicable provisions of this subchapter and supervision of all persons onboard in carrying out their assigned duties. Licensed operators and crew not aware that the deficiencies 1-7 and 9 of this form were unsafe and did not take proactive management/action to correct them. 46CFR140.210(a)
07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Remote Means of control (opening,pumps,ventilation,etc.) Machinery spaces
Issued 21 February 2020
Resolved
The valve must be installed in the fuel piping directly outside of the fuel oil supply tank. Witnessed two fuel tanks with valves aft of the tank, but the remote fuel shut off valve was several feet downstream, aft of piping diversions and other valves. Add remote shut off devices to the existing valves at the tank. 46CFR143.260(c)
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.
