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 1, 2026, 22:25 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 12.9 m to 11.5 m while in port at Bremerhaven. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (65%) |
| Sep 28, 2026, 23:26 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 13.8 m to 12.9 m while in port at Zeebrugge. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (65%) |
