Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) — Vessel Search

How do I search for a vessel using its IMO number or name?

Simply enter the vessel’s official 7-digit IMO number (e.g., 9406269) or the vessel name (e.g., Ever Given, SYMI, MSC Oscar) into the search bar above and click ‘Search’. You can also click any of the popular quick-search tags for instant vessel technical data.

Where does the vessel technical registry and machinery data come from?

Core vessel particulars and registry records (such as IMO number, flag state, dimensions, and build details) are sourced from verified international maritime registers, classification societies, and official shipping databases. Technical intelligence summaries are generated using specialized maritime AI models trained on naval architecture and marine engineering standards.

How accurate is the AI-generated technical and safety intelligence?

General vessel registry data is verified against maritime databases. AI-generated technical summaries, drydock insights, and operational notes provide rapid technical intelligence for preliminary review. For critical shipboard operations, drydock planning, or official reporting, always verify details against official ship certificates, builder’s technical manuals, and classification society records.

Is the AI Vessel Technical Intelligence tool completely free to use?

Yes. The vessel lookup tool on SEAMEN is 100% free for seafarers, technical superintendents, naval architects, and maritime students with no registration or paywalls required.
