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.

Every line above is a field of the National Vessel Documentation Center's file as served by NOAA Fisheries, dated 10 August 2026, matched to this hull on its Official Number. 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

A report is not offered for this hull. Its record holds only 1 of the seven kinds of material a report is built from: inspections, deficiencies, operational controls, tow-unit appearances, casualty records, dimensions and documentation. That is a statement about the record, not about the vessel. What a sparse-record report looks like.

Issued 20 May 2026 No resolution recorded

Where flexible nonmetallic hose is permitted for use in piping systems by this section, it must meet SAE J-1942. The vessel's hydraulic steering system was not approved by the Marine Safety Center (MSC) because the installed hoses do not meet, or currently lack documentation verifying compliance with, the SAE J1942 standard. Consequently, the following operational and compliance conditions apply: 1) Interim Operational Authorization: The vessel is permitted to operate under its current configuration, provided that all hydraulic hoses routing through high-risk fire zones are fitted with fire-resistant protection. This mitigation measure must be implemented No Later Than (NLT) June 9, 2026. 2) Final Regulatory Compliance: Prior to the commencement of the 2027 operating season, the operator must either provide formal documentation proving the current hoses conform to the SAE J1942 standard or make modifications with compliant hoses that meet all applicable regulatory standards. 46CFR182.720(e)
