AQUARIUS LEADER is a 1998 freight ship. The Coast Guard has recorded 16 inspections since 2016, most recently in February 2026, along with 7 deficiencies.
Records from 2016 to 2026. Most recent: inspection, 20 February 2026.
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 Ro-Ro 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.

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.

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.

Indicator lights on the navigation bridge had five inoperable water tight door indicators including doors throughout the STBD stairway and doors to the PORT and STBD embarkation areas, failing to indicate complete water tight integrity of the vessel.
