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.

Design draught looks implausible for this class and size — the figures above are anchored to it, so treat them with extra caution.

Estimate only — modelled from deadweight (deadweight only) using a first-principles hydrostatic model, not measured hydrostatic tables. The design draught it is anchored to is unreliable across the fleet.

Overview

About This Vessel

MV Aranui 3 was a dual passenger-cargo ship that operated between Tahiti and the Marquesas Islands. With a homeport of Papeete, French Polynesia, Aranui 3 was registered as a passenger ship under the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), for international operation. She was constructed in Romania and entered service in 2003 with Compagnie Polynesienne de Transport Maritime (CPTM). Apart from supplying cargo to the six ports in the Marquesas Islands, Aranui 3 also operated a passenger service and tourist cruise, as Aranui Cruises, within its 14-day itinerary. It also called at the islands of Rangiroa and Fakarava in the Tuamotu Islands. The ship ended her French Polynesia voyages on 4 December 2015 and was replaced by the Aranui 5 for the 12 December 2015 inaugural sailing. Aranui 3 was sold by CPTM to M2 Vessel Ltd, under the management of Al Seer Marine, Abu Dhabi, and converted to the superyacht support ship M2.
