Machinery FailureMinor
Nov 4, 2025Sorel, QUEBEC (QC)
On 04 November 2025, the bulk carrier "SPRUCEGLEN", while preparing for departure under the conduct of a pilot, reported a total failure of its electro-hydraulic power steering system at section No. 20 of Sorel, QC. The departure was postponed, and repairs were carried out.
Machinery FailureMinor
Oct 12, 2025Pointe à Boisvert, QUEBEC (QC)
On 12 October 2025, the bulk carrier "SPRUCEGLEN" reported a total failure of its starboard steering pump in the St. Lawrence River off Les Escoumins, QC. The vessel proceeded to an anchorage off Saint-Simon-sur-Mer, QC for repairs.
Machinery FailureMinor
Jun 20, 2025Thorold, ONTARIO (ON)
On 20 June 2025, the bulk carrier "SPRUCEGLEN" reported having sustained a steering system failure while approaching Lock No. 7 in the Welland Canal near Thorold, ON. The vessel was tied up at the approach wall and the crew carried out repairs.
GroundingModerate
Jun 13, 2025Littles Point, ONTARIO (ON)
On 13 June 2025, the bulk carrier "SPRUCEGLEN" reported having sustained a steering system failure on Lake Erie off Colchester, ON. The vessel anchored to conduct repairs.
Machinery FailureMinor
Nov 2, 2023Pointe de l'Islet, QUEBEC (QC)
On 02 November 2023, the bulk carrier "SPRUCEGLEN", while under the conduct of a pilot, reported having sustained a total failure of an electrical supply system in the St. Lawrence River off L'Îsle-aux-Coudres, QC. The vessel proceeded and the issue was assessed while underway.
Machinery FailureMinor
Aug 15, 2023Massena, NY, USA, Outside Provincial Boundaries
On 15 August 2023, the bulk carrier "SPRUCEGLEN" reported a total failure of its engine while approaching Snell Lock, NY, USA. The vessel secured at the upper wall and the crew assessed the issue.
GroundingMinor
Jun 7, 2023Thorold, ONTARIO (ON)
On 07 June 2023, the bulk carrier "SPRUCEGLEN" was reported having made contact with the bottom causing an ingress of water in a ballast tank while proceeding downbound in lock No. 2 of Welland Canal, ON. After a stop in Port Weller, ON to assess damages, authorities cleared the vessel to proceed to Hamilton, ON for repairs.
CollisionSerious
Apr 22, 2023Port Colborne, ONTARIO (ON)
On 22 April 2023, the bulk carrier "SPRUCEGLEN" reported colliding with the moored barge "SCOW GL6" while berthing in the Welland Canal. The vessels were repaired on site and were cleared to continue their respective voyages.

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.

Port calls

11 recent · AIS-detected

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.

Flag register50

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.
