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.

Observed extremes

How fast she’s gone.

Observed top speed
21.1 kn · 25 Mar 2026 · off Cape May, NJ · NOAA archive
Fastest leg
Charleston, SC to Melbourne · 2743 h 10 m · 3.1 kn average · 13 Jun 2026 · bound

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.
