Abstract In this chapter, we present evolutionary algorithms for solving the real time ship weather routing problem. The objectives to be minimized are the mean total risk and fuel cost incurred along the obtained route while considering the time-varying sea and weather conditions and also a constraint on the total passage time of the route. In addition, for achieving a high safety level the proposed approaches should return only solutions compliant with the guidelines of the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Two different well-known genetic algorithms, namely SPEA2 and NSGA-II are applied to the ship routing problem and a comparative performance evaluation of the two algorithms is performed. The proposed approaches are tested on real data and compared with an exact algorithm which solves the same problem.
