BARBARA VAUGHT is a 1966 freight barge. The Coast Guard has recorded 50 inspections since 1981, most recently in March 2009, along with 14 deficiencies and 4 casualty investigations between 2002 and 2008.
Records from 1981 to 2009. Most recent: inspection, 16 March 2009.
This record may be incomplete: the most recent inspection recorded for this vessel was 17 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 Barge class in Maury's sources begin in 1972.
Every line above is a count of records the US Coast Guard wrote, or a date it recorded.
The counts in the strip above are the same counts; this table splits the inspections by
the kind of activity 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.

This hull's Official Number is not in the NVDC file dated 10 August 2026 as served by NOAA Fisheries, so no documentation record is shown. Absence from that file is a fact about the file, not about the hull.
Vessel history report
Every record for this hull, in one document — $299
What it gives that this page does not: the whole record in one
dated, citable document — every line with its Coast Guard activity id, the retrieval
date on the cover, built to print to PDF with its page breaks — that a surveyor can
attach and a lender can file. The same facts as this page, complete and in one file.
Every recorded inspection, 1972 to
2026 for this class, 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.
A request, not a checkout: leave an email and Maury replies once, with
the dated document for this hull and a Stripe invoice for $299. Nothing is charged before
the document is in your hands.

The Coast Guard recorded this vessel and the following in the same
inspection activity — normally a tug and the barges in its tow. A recreational or
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.

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.
