A sanctions list's date is the earliest date the list shows the name, not when the ship took it. A name on a list is shown as a former name only where AIS shows the ship using another name after that date; otherwise it is listed as a name the list uses. AIS name changes are dated when Voydar saw them.

Cuyahoga, Ashtabula, OH, USA (NTSB DCA25FM026)Report published Feb 18, 2026
The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of the flooding of the bulk carrier Cuyahoga was water ingress in the engine room from main engine and generator water cooling systems’ duplex strainers—which were uncovered while the vessel was in layup status—possibly due to the failure of the systems’ closed sea chest valve.
