SAN LUIS

The 2 inspections in the strip above, split by the kind of activity the US Coast Guard recorded. Years with a record are calendar years in which a record exists, not years in service. What Maury does not do.

Coast Guard record current through 13 September 2026, retrieved 18 September 2026 from PSIX. Every field on this page was recorded by the Coast Guard. Records for the Towing Vessel class in Maury's sources begin in 1980.

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.

Issued 29 October 2025 Resolved

Towing vessels must meet the communications requirements of 33 CFR part 26 and 33 CFR 164.72, as applicable. Due to government shutdown, FCC is currently furloughed. Call Sign, FCC station license, FCC Radiotelephony Certificate, and Bridge-to-Bridge Certificate remain to be issued. Once the FCC has returned to operations, it is incumbent upon the vessel owner/operator to obtain a Call Sign and the outstanding communications certificates. Call Sign has currently not been entered on the vessel's COI. 46 CFR 140.715

Action required: 705 - Other - as specified
Resolved 6 March 2026
Resolution: Vessel provided valid FCC license.

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.
