Created Unrestricted Public Internet Access News

Carrying through on its previously stated commitment to increased transparency within the maritime industry, ABS has created unrestricted public Internet access to technical, classification and owner/operator information on the more than 9,000 vessels and marine structures in its class. The information can be found on the ABS website, www.eagle.org. It can be accessed either through the "Vessel Information" link within the "At a Glance" section on the home page, or by clicking through "Products and Services/Classification/Vessel Information".With the publication of this information in electronic format ABS will no longer publish the printed version of the ABS Record. This had been issued at least annually, without interruption, since 1867.
