The Port State Information EXchange (PSIX) is an automated information system that contains specific data on U.S. flag vessels, foreign flag vessels operating in U.S. waters and Coast Guard contacts with those vessels. This information is collected and stored in the Marine Information for Safety and Law Enforcement (MISLE) system.
Originally, PSIX was designed to provide other countries with Port State Intervention data on foreign-flagged vessels, it now contains information on over 650,000 U.S. and foreign-flagged vessels (incl. those used for recreational purposes).
PSIX does not contain information about:
a. Owner/Operators, refer to that section of the FAQ.
b. Open Cases/Investigations.
