Live Tracking
Most time stopped at Sainte-Victoire-de-Sorel: 3 d across 2 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.
Resolved from the live AIS destination. Distance is the real sea route (around land and through canals). “Off the port” is steaming time only; “likely alongside” adds the wait this port has actually kept comparable ships for. The queue is a typical case, not a promise — berth waits vary far more than they average. A destination is the crew’s stated intent, not a confirmed fixture.
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 28 December 2021, the bulk carrier "MARIA G", while under the conduct of a pilot, reported being disabled due to main engine issues in the St. Lawrence River off Batiscan, QC. After anchoring nearby, the crew carried out repairs which allowed the vessel to resume its voyage.
On 27 November 2020, the bulk carrier "MARIA G" reported main engine problems while anchoring in the harbour off Montréal, QC.
On 22 June 2019, the bulk carrier "MARIA G", under the conduct of a pilot, reported a propulsion machinery failure on departure from the anchorage near Sorel, QC, and had to anchor. The crew carried out repairs and the vessel resumed its voyage.
On 24 September 2017, the downbound bulk carrier "MARIA G" struck the ship arrester cable at the Beauharnois lock #3, QC. The St. Lawrence Seaway was closed for approximately 11 hours while the ship arrester cable was repaired. There was no damage to the vessel and no pollution.
On 29 October 2016, the bulk carrier "GADWALL" sustained a steering gear failure near Rivière-au-Renard, QC. The crew was unable to effect the repairs and the captain requested tug assistance to Sept-Îles, QC.
On 04 December 2008, while manoeuvring near Imperial Oil Dock in the St.Clair River, the bulk carrier "GADWALL", with 2 pilots on board, lost steering. The steering was repaired and operational 15 minutes later.
The downbound salty vessel "GADWALL" experienced sea suctions problems. Vessel was not fitted with internal recirculation systems, sea strainers have been cleared of ice.
On 20 June 2007, the downbound vessel GADWALL struck the ship arrester in lock No 3 (Beauharnois). Seaway was temporarily closed for repairs.

Operational Status
Under way but in the slow band: effective capacity voluntarily withdrawn.
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.
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 5 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 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
Bulker · summer draught 8.1 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.
Commercial
