Yes, I know about all of this. The problem is that they do not isolate
the data regarding "state" when collecting the data. All they have is
"hailing port" which can be just about anything. Usually it includes a
two letter abbreviation for the state, but it is not captured as a
separate piece. People also often give their land based home as the
hailing port, even if it is hundreds of miles from where the boat is
kept. The mailing address also does not always tell you what state the
boat is in. Trust me, this is not as easy as it looks. :-)

You can do certain searches yourself, online here:
http://cgmix.uscg.mil/PSIX/PSIXSearch.aspx
"The Port State Information eXchange (PSIX) system contains vessel
specific information derived from the United States Coast Guard's
Marine Information Safety and Law Enforcement System (MISLE).
The information contained in PSIX represents a weekly snapshot of
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) data on U.S. flag vessels,
foreign vessels operating in U.S. waters, and Coast Guard contacts
with those vessels. Information on unclosed cases or cases pending
further action is considered privileged information and is
precluded from the PSIX system."
The online search tool only allows the following search criteria, so
by State would be difficult.:
Vessel Name:
Primary Vessel Number:
Hull Identification Number (HIN):
Vessel Call Sign:
Vessel Flag:
Vessel Service:
Vessel Build Year:
Out of Service:
Vessel Name:
Primary Vessel Number:
Hull Identification Number (HIN):
Vessel Call Sign:
Vessel Flag:
Vessel Service:
Vessel Build Year: *(YYYY)*
Out of Service:

It might be a rather complicated search query. You might be able
to purchase the complete database and then develop your own custom
query. Bear in mind that there are many categories (6?) of
documented vessels besides "recreational". The two letter state
initials are in the same field as the rest of the hailing port,
and not in it's own field, so that may be a problem, too. I looked
at the application form, CG1258, and they do not have the state in
a box of its own. Possibly not quite as easy as it might seem at
first glance.

Bill — just for grins, I sent off an inquiry to the National
Vessel Documentation Center asking if it was possible to tell me
how many documented vessels were in a particular state. I
received the following reply:
This is in response to your e-mail dated January 26, 2018
asking question concerning the National Vessel Documentation
Center's database.
The National Vessel Documentation Center is unable to search
for vessels by state. We search by Coast Guard official
number, hull number and/or owner name.
As I’m sure they have a “real” database with all of this info,
this just means they aren’t interested in doing it…

I'll bet you can count the number of documented vessels in
Colorado on one hand !
