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, 02:16 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 8.9 m to 8 m after leaving Port Hueneme. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (55%) |
| Sep 28, 2026, 23:09 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 9.8 m to 8.9 m while in port at Long Beach. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (65%) |
