    My car is on that ship. I asked for no port installed options. I'll have to figure out how to install the driver's side floor mat posts myself when I order the set off the Internet.

    I saw 2 ships that looked like this in port near Toyohashi, Japan from a web cam. Late May? They were across the harbor in the distance. Norway flagged? A Honda ship (said Honda in big letters )just left Portland. Used Columbia R. side of terminal. Toyota's on the Wilamette side.

    So is the Overseas Joyce coming to Newark after the Andromeda Leader?

    My choice just got upgraded to the level V, which I really wanted, in my dealers next allocation. He doesn't know yet if it's on the Andomeda Leader like the scheduled IV he saved for me was or if it's on the next ship. He's digging for information for me.

    I haven't seen a track for Overseas Joyce since it was in the Canal last Sunday. You show an ETA in Jacksonville today. Have you seen her actual position today? Thanks

    Found Overseas Joyce Call sign V7NV4

    Ship Status Report: callsign V7NV4

    12 hours ago she was off Cuba approaching Havana

    She's now (2330) being reported off of Miami doing 19kts and should clearly make Jacksonville late Thursday.

    James - you seem most knowledgable about this stuff. Why is it that sometimes the map shows no ships at all - not just the one I'm tracking - but ALL of them - even near a busy port! I'm afraid my car is lost in the Bermuda triangle! :eek:

    It has to do with the time of day, weather systems, sun spots, ect...
    AIS is a VHF radio system. How far the signal travels depends on things like I listed above. There is a minimum target range for the ship based systems. The receiver data that we see depends on where they put the antennas. Some of the data is from "official" port systems like in Panama. Others are just interested parties like me or you. Vessel and Marine tracker are volunteer sites.
    Some times you can see all of the Gulf of Mexico and half the Atlantic but only for a few minutes. If the ship happens to be sending itinerary data and a Marine tracking site receives it we will be able to look it up later. This is how I see some of the ships in Japan from the China, Taiwan, and Korean sites.
    And just lucky sometimes
