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 24, 2026, 22:04 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 8.2 m to 8.9 m while in port at Galveston. Voydar infers the ship probably loaded cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (65%) |
