Welcome to International Maritime Library! We are your go-to resource for maritime information at the push of a button. Our brand is dedicated to providing a comprehensive database of vessel information to help you navigate the world of merchant ships and sailing vessels. Our flagship product, the 'Version 3' database, comprises an astounding 121,503 vessels, replacing both 'Version 1' (54,006 vessels) and 'Version 2' (85,211 vessels).

We meticulously compile our database from reliable sources such as the List of Merchant Vessels of the United States (MVUS), American Lloyds, and the Record (American Bureau of Shipping). In addition, we have incorporated various other lists that we have digitized over the past 25 years, including WPA Custom House records, Canadian Shipping records, and more. Our mission is to make researching a particular vessel a breeze.

We understand the importance of accuracy and have taken steps to eliminate duplicates and correct errors. However, we caution users to cross-reference various sources as different publications may complicate matters at times. Currently, we are hard at work on 'Version 4', which will include additional information from our List of Merchant Sailing Vessels 1867-1885 as well as updates from various other sources.

Our goal is to provide you with a wealth of detailed information to enhance your understanding of these remarkable vessels. Please keep in mind that despite our best efforts, mistakes can occur. We strive for accuracy and appreciate your feedback if you come across any issues.
