The 39 inspections in the strip above, split by the kind of activity the US Coast Guard recorded. Years with a record are calendar years in which a record exists, not years in service. What Maury does not do.

Coast Guard record current through 13 September 2026, retrieved 18 September 2026 from PSIX. Every field on this page was recorded by the Coast Guard. Records for the Towing Vessel class in Maury's sources begin in 1980.

Deficiency record · 12

03 - Water/Weathertight Conditions › N/A - No Subsystem › Other (load lines)
Issued 27 December 2023 Resolved
A towing vessel must be maintained and operated so the watertight integrity and stability of the vessel are not compromised. The vessel struck a submerged object on the Lower Mississippi River which resulted in water ingress into the port fuel-oil storage tank and the inner bottom void space. The additional water in the fuel tank has caused the vessel to list to port. Correct the list prior to movement and make permanent repairs to the effected spaces prior to returning to commercial service.
Action required: 60 - Rectify deficiencies prior to movement
Resolved 5 February 2024
Resolution: The vessel's crew transferred water to the vessel's STBD slop tank to a point where the list was corrected enough to be towed to drydock. In addition, MSD Vicksburg MI's witnessed satisfactory repairs of the hull.

Each line is an incident investigation the Coast Guard recorded with this hull among the vessels involved, with the date and the classification the Coast Guard gave it, and the bridge, lock or dam the investigation names where it names one. Involvement is not fault. The investigation narrative is not published. Source: IIR, through 2026.

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.
