Particulars come from her AIS broadcast and the sourced facts ledger. A type decided from her name or her operator is a guess and is labelled as one.

The window receiver times a gate to about a second; the national archive carries one fix a minute, interpolated to about two. Her two bests are two different measurements and are never ranked against each other.

What she holds.

None.

Observed extremes

How fast she’s gone.

Observed top speed
20.5 kn · 11 May 2026 · off Port Hueneme, CA · NOAA archive
Fastest leg
Galveston, TX to Houston, TX · 1 h 34 m · 26.5 kn average · 14 Jan 2026

From our own position archives, with reasonableness checks: a plausible top speed over a corroborated window, a direct leg between two named places. A bound carries no second fix to confirm it and is labelled as one.
