Live Tracking
Most time stopped at Leamington — 19 h 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
AIS-derived from our live feed.
Compliance
On 05 April 2026, the ferry "PELEE ISLANDER II", with 24 people on board, reported a total failure of one of its engines on Lake Erie off Pelee Island, ON. The crew stopped both engines and the vessel was anchored to prevent its drifting while investigating the issue.
On 19 April 2025, the ferry "PELEE ISLANDER II", with 38 people on board, reported having experienced a close-quarters situation with the fishing vessel "HENRY J. III" while proceeding towards Leamington, ON. The ferry sounded signals, observed no reaction from the fishing vessel and maneuvered to avoid the collision before continuing on its voyage.
On 12 April 2024, the ferry "PELEE ISLANDER II", with 36 people on board, reported having run aground while approaching the harbour of Kingsville, ON. The vessel freed itself and proceeded to the wharf to assess damages.
On 20 March 2023, the ferry "PELEE ISLANDER II", with 22 people on board, reported having made bottom contact while approaching the harbour of Leamington, ON. The vessel sustained a speed reduction but kept the ability to manoeuvre.
On 02 December 2022, the ro-ro ferry "PELEE ISLANDER II" made bottom contact upon approaching the dock in Pigeon Bay off Kingsville, ON.
On 12 November 2020, the ferry "PELEE ISLANDER II" reported a close quarters situation with the fishing vessel "LADY ANNA II" near Pelee Island, ON. The ferry altered its course and reduced speed.
On 30 June 2019, the passenger/vehicle ferry "PELEE ISLANDER II" experienced a momentary loss of propulsion 1.73 nautical miles South of Leamington Harbour, ON. The vessel resumed its voyage after repairs were carried out.

Operational Status
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.
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
Some elevated factors — typically age or a lower-graded flag — but no acute ship-specific flag.
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.
