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.

Risk & Sustainability
An independent cross-check of the estimate above for Bulker (segment · size · age · market).
Estimate from $/dwt of similar-size, similar-age ships sold in the last 24 months. Indicative, not a certified valuation.
This ship has no verified emissions report. We estimate a band D from its segment, size and age (63% confidence).
Estimate, not a reported figure. Within one band 95% of the time on reported peers.

Safety Record
- TOTAL FAILURE OF ANY MACHINERY OR TECHNICAL SYSTEMMinorMay 5, 2026Point Pelee, ONTARIO (ON)
On 05 May 2026, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA STRONGFIELD" reported a total engine failure on Lake Erie off Wheatley, ON. The vessel proceeded to an anchorage for investigation and repairs.
- RISK OF COLLISION (near collision) - With another vessel or other floating objectMinorAug 1, 2025Point Edward, ONTARIO (ON)
On 01 August 2025, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA STRONGFIELD", reported a close quarters situation with a large number of pleasure crafts under the Blue Water Bridge in Point Edward, ON while transiting upbound in the St. Clair River. The bulk carrier maneuvered to avoid collisions.
- GROUNDING - Under power (non-intentional)SeriousNov 6, 2024Sarnia Elevator Dock, Sarnia, ON, ONTARIO (ON)
On 06 November 2024, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA STRONGFIELD" reported that it went aground while approaching the dock at Sarnia, ON, on the St. Claire River. The vessel refloated itself and proceeded to moor alongside where the crew inspected for damage.
- TOTAL FAILURE OF ANY MACHINERY OR TECHNICAL SYSTEMMinorOct 16, 2024Whitefish Point, MI, USA, Outside Provincial Boundaries
On 16 October 2024, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA STRONGFIELD" reported having sustained a total engine failure on Lake Superior off Whitefish Bay, MI, USA. The engine was stopped and the crew effected repairs while adrift. Once completed, the vessel resumed its voyage.
- RISK OF COLLISION (near collision) - With another vessel or other floating objectMinorJul 27, 2024Poulier de la Longue Pointe, QUEBEC (QC)
On 27 July 2024, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA STRONGFIELD", while under the conduct of a pilot, reported having experienced a close quarters situation with a pleasure craft in the St. Lawrence River off Port de Montréal, QC.
- INTENTIONAL BEACHING/GROUNDING/ANCHORING to avoid occurrenceModerateApr 27, 2024Cap sur Mer, QUEBEC (QC)
On 27 April 2024, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA STRONGFIELD", with 18 people on board and while under the conduct of a pilot, reported having sustained a total failure of its propulsion system, causing an unexpected loss of speed, in the St. Lawrence River off Port de Montréal, QC. The vessel proceeded to an anchorage off Longueuil, QC to assess the issue.
- TOTAL FAILURE OF ANY MACHINERY OR TECHNICAL SYSTEMMinorNov 26, 2023Poulier de la Longue Pointe, QUEBEC (QC)
On 26 November 2023, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA STRONGFIELD", while under the conduct of a pilot, reported having lost propulsion after having sustained a total failure of its main engine's air control system in the St. Lawrence River off Port de Montréal, QC. The crew assessed the issue while adrift and the vessel resumed its voyage.
- TOTAL FAILURE OF ANY MACHINERY OR TECHNICAL SYSTEMMinorSep 7, 2022Pointe Manicouagan, QUEBEC (QC)
On 07 September 2022, the bulk carrier "ALGOMA STRONGFIELD" reported having sustained a blackout and being disabled while transiting the St. Lawrence River off Matane, QC. The crew restarted the engines and the vessel continued its voyage.

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.
Port calls
1 recent · AIS-detectedArrivals, time in port and the load/discharge inferred from the draught change — detected from AIS track history. An open call means the vessel is still in port (no departure observed yet).
- no cargo change→ · 3 h in port· draught 6.9→6.9 m
Method: each call is a run of fixes inside a port’s geofence confirmed by a stop (or an AIS gap); load/discharge is the sign of the draught delta over the call. Indicative — arrivals before our AIS history began read from the first observation.
Where it waits
1 port · 3 h totalTime-in-port summed by port from the AIS-detected port-call history — the ports this vessel has spent the most time at, longest first.
- Port Colborne· Canada3 h1 call · 3 h avg
Based on 1 completed call observed since — open calls (no departure yet) are excluded. The distribution sharpens as AIS history accrues.
Composite Risk
Risk Score
No strong adverse signal on the components we could read for this hull.
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 8.1 m · 45.7 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=1.60 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.
