Ship Locator


Recommended Posts

Someone posted a link to a web site that shows the current location of the ships. Unfortunately, I did not save to my favorites (hadn't had my coffee yet that morning -- sorry). If anyone knows which site I am talking about, could you please repost it? Thank you.

It can only show ships close to land. the ship has a radio transmitter that broadcasts its position. That signal has to picked up a reciever on land , fed to a host server that in turn puts it out on the internet.
