I’ve just purchased the ‘Ship Finder’ AIS App for my iPhone
which works a treat. There’s a Dutch yacht named ‘Cine Mara’ in which I have an
interest. She’s currently stormbound at Alderney awaiting better weather, and
with the App I shall be able to track her, know her speed and course, her exact
location and destination if programmed by her skipper, along with her ETA. All
of this information is updated every 3 minutes. At just under £3 for the
advertisement free iOS App, I think this is good value for money. The free
version has limited information, and it is spoiled by intrusive advertisements.
An advertisement free live chart showing the positions and
movements of vessels may be had by visiting the Live Ships Map – AIS on a
computer. (See Link below)
Note: All photos are
of ‘Cine Mara’.**
