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.

Vessel history report
Every record for this hull, in one document — $299
Every recorded inspection, 1972 to 2026, in one chronology · every deficiency, with system, dates and resolution · operational controls imposed and removed · every name this hull has been recorded under · the vessels it was inspected alongside, and when · how its record compares with hulls of similar age and size, as a fact about the population and never a judgement about this vessel.
Read one first, in full: a forty-year chronology · a hull that changed operators four times · the sparse case, shown as an example, not for sale.
This report is in development and is not for sale yet. There is no date, and nothing is charged. Leave an email and we will tell you when it exists, once.
Used only to tell you when the report exists. Not shared, not sold, and not added to a mailing list.

The Coast Guard recorded this vessel and the following in the same inspection activity — normally a tug and the barges in its tow. Only barges and towing vessels are in this archive, so any other vessel type in the same activity does not appear here: these lists are a floor, not a complete manifest.

Issued 17 October 2022
Resolved
Each towing vessel must have a means to monitor and control the amount of thrust, rudder angle and (if applicable) direction of thrust at each operating station. The ITV BETSY BLESSEY lost its port rudder. The ITV BETSY BLESSEY must tie up with the ITV CHARLIE MELANCON (O.N. 1209021) and proceed to National Maintenance in Paducah, KY to install a port rudder. The installation of the port rudder and steering tests must be to the satisfaction of the TPO (ABS). Also, ABS surveyor must provide Sector Lower Mississippi River objective evidence that the port rudder was replaced and that the steering tests were conducted satisfactory prior to commercial operations.
