None of the 102 vessels our AIS feed observed within 25 nm of Baltimore between 29 Apr 2026 and 5 Aug 2026 broadcast an IMO number on the OFAC, EU, UK or UN sanctions list today. The feed saw only part of the traffic, so this does not mean no listed vessel called here. The feed has delivered no positions since 5 Aug 2026, so these figures will not change until it resumes.

Between 29 Apr 2026 and 5 Aug 2026, ArcNautical's AIS feed observed 102 distinct vessels at Baltimore, with Cargo making up 49% of those with a ship-type code — in line with the North Atlantic regional average of 49%. Baltimore in USA sits along the backbone of transatlantic trade between Europe and the Americas. The North Atlantic is generally lower-risk than active piracy or conflict zones, but its weather is among the most powerful on Earth. The winter storm season (November–March) produces sustained gale-force winds, significant wave heights above 10 metres, and reduced visibility. The Great Circle route between Northern Europe and the US East Coast passes through peak storm activity, and the choice between a shorter rougher track and a longer calmer deviation has material financial implications. EU and US sanctions enforcement adds compliance overhead — both maintain extensive regimes that require thorough vessel and ownership-chain vetting.

Baltimore falls under the US Coast Guard. The US Coast Guard operates its own Port State Control programme rather than participating in a regional MoU. The USCG Port State Control Annual Report publishes detention statistics by flag and class society. ArcNautical evaluates per-vessel detention probability using flag performance (USCG QUALSHIP 21 status where applicable), vessel age, deficiency history, and ownership opacity.
