MSC MEDITERRANEAN is a 1995 freight ship. The Coast Guard has recorded 22 inspections since 2019, most recently in March 2024, along with 8 deficiencies and 6 operational controls.
Records from 2019 to 2024. Most recent: inspection, 5 March 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 General Dry Cargo 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.

unclassed hull in the same activity is held and not published, so it does not appear
here: these lists are a floor, not a complete manifest.
