Live Tracking
Most time stopped at Port of Vancouver: 35 d across 71 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 10 August 2023, the ferry "SEASPAN SWIFT", with 11 people on board, reported having run aground after having sustained a total failure of its electrical system and a loss of propulsion in the South Arm of the Fraser River off Steveston, BC. The vessel refloated with the rising tide and proceeded to Tilbury, BC without assistance.
On 07 January 2022, the ro-ro cargo vessel "SEASPAN SWIFT" reported as disabled due to a total electrical blackout in Fraser River, BC. The vessel anchored off Buoy 8 in Steveston Bend, BC and the crew successfully restarted the engines. The tug "COMOX CROWN" escorted the vessel to Tilbury, BC.
On 17 December 2020, the cargo ferry "SEASPAN SWIFT", with 10 people on board, reported an electrical fire in the engine room while transiting the Fraser River, BC. The crew extinguished the fire using a portable fire extinguisher.
On 15 November 2017, the ro-ro cargo vessel "SEASPAN SWIFT", with 10 people on board, reported striking the No. 2 ramp whilst docking at Tilbury terminal, Delta, BC. Minor injuries and major damage to the vessel and ramp was reported.
Recorded marine occurrences naming this vessel.
Operational Status
Stopped, anchored or moored on its latest broadcast: parked, not necessarily withdrawn.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 126 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.
Estimated
Other · summer draught 4.3 m · 9.1 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.
Commercial
Price it in the Route Planner between any two commercial ports: ballast and laden legs, two fuels at live bunker prices, port and canal costs, the weather on the way, and the TCE set against the market.
