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.

Vessel history report

A report is not offered for this hull.

That is a statement about the record, not about the vessel. What a sparse-record report looks like.
