Derived from the AIS track — runs of near-zero speed (anchored, moored or drifting) snapped to the nearest port. Builds up as we observe the vessel.
Resolved from the live AIS destination. Distance is the real sea route (around land and through canals); the computed ETA is at the vessel’s passage speed. A destination is the crew’s stated intent, not a confirmed fixture.

Safety Record
- TOTAL FAILURE OF ANY MACHINERY OR TECHNICAL SYSTEMMinorApr 23, 2025Saint Lambert lock, QUEBEC (QC)
On 23 April 2025, the bulk carrier "LAKE ST. CLAIR", with 21 people on board and under the conduct of a pilot, reported having sustained a failure of its main engine starting air system while entering upbound into the Saint-Lambert lock in the St. Lawrence Seaway. The vessel was escorted with the assistance of a tug to the wharf in Sainte-Catherine, QC for the crew to assess the problem and carry out the repairs.
- TOTAL FAILURE OF ANY MACHINERY OR TECHNICAL SYSTEMMinorApr 23, 2025Port de Sorel, QUEBEC (QC)
On 23 April 2025, the bulk carrier "LAKE ST. CLAIR", with 21 people on board and under the conduct of a pilot, reported having sustained a failure of its main engine starting air system while unberthing from the Port de Sorel, QC. At the time of the occurrence, the vessel was being assisted by the tug "OCEAN SERGE GENOIS" and the tug "OCEAN COMEAU". The crew re-started the engine, and the vessel continued its voyage.

Build Series
Sister Vessels
Sister hulls share a yard, segment, build year (±1) and deadweight (±3%) — the cleanest comparables for valuation. Derived in-house from our fleet register; coverage is limited to hulls carrying a recorded builder, so a series may be incomplete.
Operational Status
Activity
Making way at sea speed on its latest broadcast.
Read from the single most-recent AIS broadcast we hold for this hull — we keep no position history, so this is a point-in-time posture, not a dwell inference. Derived in-house from our own AIS feed; weight it by the broadcast age above.
Composite Risk
Risk Score
Strong, corroborated adverse evidence — a detention, sanctions exposure or a dark-fleet signal.
A coverage-weighted blend of the 2 components we could read for this hull — the weights renormalise over only the components present, so a thin read is never inflated and a hull is never credited a “safe 0” for a signal it has no row for. This headline is flagged low-confidence (a thin or structural-only read) and should not be treated as a verdict. Higher means riskier. Derived in-house from government-open port-State-control, flag, sanctions and our own vessel data; weight it by the coverage above.
Estimated
Capacity & Classification
Bulker · summer draught 6.1 m · 36.6 t per cm immersion
Estimate only — modelled from deadweight (deadweight regression) using a first-principles hydrostatic model, not measured hydrostatic tables. The design draught it is anchored to is unreliable across the fleet.
density DWT/GT=1.47 is consistent with declared bulker
Declared type is consistent with the class implied by the vessel’s size signals. Inferred via our shared size-based classifier.
