Live Tracking
Most time stopped at Port Weller: 6 d across 3 stays.
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.
Intelligence
How a hull like this loses value with age (today's market). The dot marks this ship at 19 yrs.
A quick estimate: the median $/dwt of 58 similar-size, similar-age ships sold in the last 24 months, not re-timed to today's market. The full valuation blends several models over recent sales adjusted for size, age and market moves, so its consensus value can differ from this figure. Indicative, not a certified valuation.

Compliance
On 08 September 2026, the bulk carrier "HELENA G", while under the conduct of a pilot, reported a total failure of its propulsion in Canal de Beauharnois, QC. The vessel was anchored for investigation and repairs.
On 08 October 2025, the bulk carrier "HELENA G", while under the conduct of a pilot, reported having experienced a close quarters situation with the sailing vessel "WONDERS" in the St. Lawrence River off Port de Montréal, QC.
On 26 July 2022, the bulk carrier "HELENA G" reported experiencing a close quarters situation with a pleasure craft in the St. Lawrence River off Contrecoeur, QC.
On 08 April 2022, the bulk carrier "HELENA G" reported being disabled due to a main engine controls failure at the lock in Saint-Lambert, QC. The crew carried out repairs and the vessel resumed its voyage.
On 13 January 2022, the bulk carrier "HELENA G", while under the conduct of a pilot, reported its main sea water system being blocked by ice which caused its main engine to overheat, in the St. Lawrence River off Saint-Nicolas, QC. The crew carried out repairs and the vessel continued its voyage.
On 21 December 2021, the bulk carrier "HELENA G", while under the conduct of a pilot, reported being disabled due to a main engine failure on the St. Lawrence River off Yamachiche, QC. The vessel regained engine power shortly after and proceed to the anchorage off Sorel, QC for repairs.
On 04 September 2019, the bulk carrier "HELENA G", under the conduct of a pilot, reported having a problem with its main engine near Cap St-Michel, QC. The crew carried out repairs and the vessel continued its voyage.
On 05 May 2019, the bulk carrier "HELENA G" reported a steering gear failure while berthed at section 19 of the Sorel Harbour, QC. The vessel will resume operation after repairs.

Operational Status
An older hull, stopped, whose last broadcast is itself no longer fresh: a cautious lay-up proxy.
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. “Likely laid up” is a cautious proxy (an old hull, stopped, with a non-fresh fix), not a confirmed lay-up. Derived in-house from our own AIS feed; weight it by the broadcast age above.
Arrivals, 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).
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.
Time-in-port summed by port from the AIS-detected port-call history: the ports this vessel has spent the most time at, longest first.
Based on 13 completed calls observed since . Open calls (no departure yet) are excluded. The distribution sharpens as AIS history accrues.
Composite Risk
Multiple adverse factors, or a hard ship-specific signal, lift this hull above the fleet norm.
A coverage-weighted blend of the 3 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. 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
Bulker · summer draught 7.3 m · 44.3 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=1.63 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.
Transparency
Behavioural flags raised against this vessel, each shown with the raw evidence behind it. Derived in-house from data we are entitled to publish; informational, not a determination of wrongdoing.
Stopped transmitting relative to the live feed front
Method: gap measured vs the live feed's own max timestamp, not wall-clock. Source: TheMaritime aisstream.io ingest (ais_positions).
Signals are a current-state view: a flag clears once the vessel stops tripping its detector. These are screening indicators, not a substitute for your own due diligence.
