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 4, 2026, 04:24 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 8.5 m to 11.3 m while in port at Scapa Flow. Voydar infers the ship probably loaded cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | High (75%) |
| Sep 30, 2026, 03:19 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 14.5 m to 8.5 m while in port at Wilhelmshaven. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | High (75%) |
