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.

|---|---|---|---|
| Algeciras ESALG | Sep 25, 2026, 04:40 UTC | Sep 26, 2026, 02:34 UTC | 21 h 54 min |

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, 09:40 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 14 m to 14.8 m while in port at Algeciras. Voydar infers the ship probably loaded cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (65%) |
| Sep 24, 2026, 19:53 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 15 m to 14 m while in port at Tanger Med. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (65%) |
