MEG HUNTER is a 1998 commercial fishing vessel. The Coast Guard has recorded 8 inspections since 2019, most recently in August 2025, along with 8 deficiencies and 2 casualty investigations between 2021 and 2025.
Records from 2019 to 2025. Most recent: inspection, 18 August 2025.
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 Fishing Vessel 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.
