Years with a record
2 calendar years (2025–2026)

Coast Guard recorded. 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 September 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.

FCC Universal Licensing System ship-station file of 6 September 2026, matched to this hull on its
US Official Number. Status and dates are the file’s own. The licensee is not read from the file and is not shown.
A lapsed licence’s MMSI is still the number the vessel transmitted under while it was valid.
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. Reports.

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)
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.
