World-leading maritime intelligence platform enabling governments, defence & industry to understand activity across the world’s oceans.
Critical intelligence from @pa.nton.cx on the registry document, and @maikmarahrens.bsky.social on the immediate operational impact.
This video tracks the rise of the Benin flag: from a single vessel in July to 40+ tankers today. A clear visualization of coordinated identity laundering at scale.

The investigation demonstrates why persistent, multi-source intelligence is essential.
By accessing 5+ years of AIS history and fusing it with ownership data, analysts mapped rapid, anomalous fleet expansion and pierced obscure corporate structures to identify beneficial owners.

Starboard delivers the actionable intelligence operators need to navigate these high-risk environments.
Our technology provides specific, proactive tools, enabling operators to:
1. Establish secure alert zones
2.Enable 'Blue Force Tracking' to monitor assets independent of public AIS systems.

The re-emergence of piracy in the Indian Ocean, alongside recent incidents in the Gulf of Guinea and Singapore Strait, underscores a pressing need for enhanced Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) across the world’s most critical maritime trade routes.

We commend the NZ Govt's new plan to disrupt maritime meth trafficking in the Pacific.
The key challenge noted by advisors: "fragmented, slow systems".
We're built for this—fusing data into a picture that can be shared rapidly across agencies and borders.

The failure of the FURIA in the Danish Straits and the grounding of KOMANDER in the Suez Canal are not isolated accidents.
They are the inevitable, kinetic consequence of the "shadow fleet": ageing, uninsured vessels operating outside maritime law.

NATO’s Baltic Sentry confirms that threats to undersea cables can be prevented by deterrence through vigilance. Zero incidents occurred, proving the value of persistent surveillance.
Starboard Maritime Intelligence's fused intelligence provides a path to enhance this resilience.

Starboard Maritime Intelligence has identified a false-flagged VLCC — NOVA (#IMO9283801) — transiting west through the Malacca Strait. It is now operating as ARROW (#IMO9212876), scrapped in 2018 as S MISTRAL. The stolen identity and AIS spoofing indicate sanctions evasion.
