NORMOND MCALLISTER is a 1981 towing vessel. The Coast Guard has recorded 42 inspections since 1987, most recently in November 2024, along with 15 deficiencies and 3 casualty investigations between 2005 and 2024.
Records from 1987 to 2024. Most recent: inspection, 15 November 2024.
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 Towing Vessel class in Maury's sources begin in 1980.
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.

Ownership record

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