Port calls

Two kinds of evidence, kept apart: calls Seadar detected from the ship's AIS positions, and arrivals and departures published by port authorities and customs records.

Detected from AIS AIS-detected

Port	Arrived	Departed	Time in port
Dartford GBDFD	Sep 26, 2026, 09:54 UTC	Sep 27, 2026, 09:35 UTC	23 h 41 min
IJmuiden/Velsen NLIJM	Sep 25, 2026, 15:10 UTC	Sep 25, 2026, 16:09 UTC	1 h 0 min
IJmuiden/Velsen NLIJM	Sep 22, 2026, 22:03 UTC	Sep 22, 2026, 22:33 UTC	30 min

Detected by Seadar when the ship's AIS positions stayed slow inside a harbour area. Calls shorter than 30 minutes are not shown. Depends on AIS reception; detection started on June 8, 2026.

Behaviour at sea Seadar-derived

Patterns Seadar 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.

Predicted arrival

Seadar estimates arrival at Amsterdam around Oct 2, 2026, 22:02 UTC, most likely between Sep 27, 2026, 08:55 UTC and Oct 22, 2026, 14:53 UTC. Based on 48 past transits between NLIJM and Amsterdam seen in our port calls. The crew-reported ETA is Sep 23, 2026, 00:00 UTC.
