The list states that it covers the period 1800 to 1952.
I gather, that each year, once the confidentiality has expired, additional material is released into the public domain by the navy.
As I am only interested in pre-1900 material, I did not check, whether there is an updated list on the SHD Web-site.
I am not sure what the SHD would say, if copies of their holdings suddenly appeared on archive.org. One would need to discuss such 'migration' with them beforehand ...
