JOY STAR — Passenger · IMO 8869270

JOY STAR has not broadcast an AIS position for 7 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the Mediterranean Sea, on 30 Oct 2026, 15:12 UTC. It was sailing from PYTHAGOREIO to PYTHAGOREIO. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

JOY STAR broadcasts MMSI 241609000 and is registered as IMO 8869270, with call sign SVA8166. The MMSI is the radio identifier used by AIS; the IMO number stays with the ship for life and does not change with re-flagging or sale.

JOY STAR is classified as a passenger vessel registered under the GR flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full passenger fleet at /vessel-type/passenger and full GR flag list at /flag/gr.

AIS transponders broadcast position every 2 seconds when underway at high speed and up to every 3 minutes at anchor. The position you see refreshes whenever the ship is in range of a coastal AIS receiver or a satellite pass — typically seconds in coastal waters and minutes offshore.

JOY STAR is classed by RUSSIAN MARITIME REGISTER OF SHIPPING, the classification society responsible for inspecting the vessel against safety, structural and operational rules. As a passenger, JOY STAR sits in the same design class as the other passengers listed in the Similar Vessels section of the vessel page, or in the full passenger directory at /vessel-type/passenger. JOY STAR has a gross tonnage of 245 GT.
