Live Tracking
Most time stopped at Thetis Island: 11 d across 411 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 01 April 2026, the ferry "PUNE'LUXUTTH", with 19 people on board, reported a total failure of one of its engines upon departure from Chemainus, BC. The vessel returned to the wharf for repairs and was assisted for berthing by the tug "HELEN J".
On 23 January 2023, the ferry "KUPER" reported experiencing issues with one of its generators while in Telegraph Harbour, BC. The vessel sailed to Chemainus, BC.
On 03 August 2022, the passenger ferry "KUPER" reported one of its two engines as not operational while moored off Penelakut Island, BC. The vessel proceeded to Thetis Island, BC using its other engine and the assistance of a tug.
On 02 August 2022, the ferry "KUPER" reported 1 of its 2 generators as being unserviceable at the ferry terminal in Crofton, BC. The ferry continued its scheduled sailing with the remaining generator.
On 30 July 2022, the ro-ro passenger ferry "KUPER", with 55 people on board, reported experiencing a close quarters situation with a pleasure craft while proceeding to Chemainus, BC. Both vessels took evasive action to avoid the collision.
On 04 April 2022, the ferry "KUPER" reported that 1 of its 2 generators was not operational while the ferry was at the terminal on Thetis Island, BC. The ferry underwent repairs and returned to service.
On 13 August 2021, the passenger ferry "KUPER" reported sustaining an engine failure while moored in Telegraph Harbour near Penelakut Island, BC. The vessel continued its voyage to Chemainus, BC using one engine and the assistance of a tug.

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 92 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.
