This record may be incomplete: the most recent inspection recorded for this vessel was 4 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 General Dry Cargo Ship class in Maury's sources begin in 2016.
