Overview

About This Vessel

MV Avenue Star is Liberian-flagged a 17,200 dwt bulk cargo ship built in 2008. According to a statement from the United States Attorney for the Middle District of Florida, Yavuz Mogultay was serving on board Avenue Star as the ship's engineer when he used bypass hoses to shortcut the vessel's pollution prevention equipment and discharge oil waste from the engine room. The United States Coast Guard discovered the oil in the ship's ballast water tank upon inspecting the vessel on October 21, 2009, at the Port of Tampa. On July 23, 2010, Mogultay pleaded guilty to the charges of failing to record the discharges properly. He was later sentenced to 60 months probation.

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.

A coverage-weighted blend of the 3 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. 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.

Signals are a current-state view: a flag clears once the vessel stops tripping its detector. These are screening indicators, not a substitute for your own due diligence.
