BBC SATURN is a 2022 freight ship. The Coast Guard has recorded 9 inspections since 2022, most recently in November 2025, along with 2 deficiencies and 1 operational control.
Records from 2022 to 2025. Most recent: inspection, 28 November 2025.
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 Bulk Carrier class in Maury's sources begin in 2016.
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.

Ownership record

Vessel Documentation Center, files it here with its date, and every reader of this page gets it.
