Behaviour at sea Voydar-derived

Patterns Voydar derived from this ship's AIS broadcasts. They are inferences, not reports: each one shows how it was computed and how confident we are, and none of them says why a ship behaved this way.

When	What we observed	Confidence
Oct 1, 2026, 03:01 UTC	Draught change Reported draught went from 10.5 m to 6.7 m while in port at Amsterdam. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1	High (75%)
Sep 28, 2026, 15:50 UTC	Draught change Reported draught went from 6.5 m to 10.3 m while in port at Jelsa. Voydar infers the ship probably loaded cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1	High (75%)
