Counts cover vessels with a valid US Coast Guard Certificate of Documentation whose hailing port is in Louisiana, as of August 2026. Documentation is required for commercial vessels of 5+ net tons and optional for recreational boats of that size, so small state-registered boats are not included. Names are compared exactly as documented, uppercased.
