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 29, 2026, 19:02 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 9.6 m to 9.1 m after leaving Immingham. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (55%) |
