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.
Detected from AIS AIS-detected
| Port | Arrived | Departed | Time in port |
|---|---|---|---|
| Algeciras ESALG | Sep 25, 2026, 04:35 UTC | Sep 25, 2026, 23:52 UTC | 19 h 17 min |
Detected by Voydar when the ship's AIS positions stayed slow inside a harbour area. Calls shorter than 30 minutes are not shown. Depends on AIS reception; detection started on June 8, 2026.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Sep 25, 2026, 23:14 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 6.9 m to 8.3 m while in port at Algeciras. Voydar infers the ship probably loaded cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (65%) |
| Sep 22, 2026, 19:12 UTC | Loitering Stayed within 9.4 km for 14 h 41 min (drifting), 80 km from the nearest port and outside known anchorages. Method seadar.behaviour.loitering v1 | Medium (60%) |
