KONA AGGRESSOR II is a 1992 passenger vessel (inspected). The Coast Guard has recorded 11 inspections since 2016, most recently in February 2022, along with 11 deficiencies — 4 with no resolution recorded — and 1 casualty investigation in 2006.
Records from 2006 to 2022. Most recent: inspection, 10 February 2022.
This record may be incomplete: the most recent inspection recorded for this vessel was 4 years ago. Maury shows what the Coast Guard recorded, not whether the vessel has been inspected since, is still in service, or what condition it is in. 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 Passenger Ship class in Maury's sources begin in 2016.
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.
