Port calls

Two kinds of evidence, kept apart: calls Voydar detected from the ship's AIS positions, and arrivals and departures published by port authorities and customs records.

About Nissos Rodos

Nissos Rodos (Greek: Νήσος Ρόδος, romanized: Nísos Ródos) is a ferry owned by the Greek company Hellenic Seaways. Built in 1987 by the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries shipyard in Shimonoseki for the Japanese company Taiheiyō Ferry, it was originally named Kiso (Japanese: きそ, romanized: Kiso). It entered service in October 1987. On routes between the Pacific coast of Honshū and Hokkaido, it will be replaced in 2005 by the new Kiso. Sold in August 2004 to the Greek company Hellas Ferries (which would later change its name to Hellenic Seaways), the ship reached the Mediterranean in March 2005. Initially operated in the Adriatic Sea between Greece and Italy under the name Ocean Trailer, it sailed between Italy and Spain between 2005 and 2007 under charter to the Italian company Grimaldi Lines. It was renamed Hellenic Voyager in 2007 and then Nissos Rodos in 2010.
