Missing Vessels from AIS page

[BananaSharkDave]

I have a sailing yacht with a class B transponder, I've noticed that a lot of AIS apps and programs fail to display her or my neighbours vessels with similar transponders.

Ship Finder HD is one that fails to show her, however Boat Watch shows every vessel and links to this site.

Does anyone know of any other free to use programs that display "all vessels"

See if you can find " Joker" or " Meghan Alice" in Portsmouth harbour.

I can see both ships in Marine Traffic
Joker, MMSI 235059574
Meghan Alice, MMSI 235109191

Is that an app for a IPhone or android device or a PC program??

I notice it hasn't shown a picture for Joker, can you see one for Meghan Alice??

Thanks Dave

It's an APP for Smartphone but also for PC

and register.
For both ships are no photo visible because there is no photo uploaded.

When you find a vessel through AIS on Marine Traffic you can click on Vessel Details and somewhere should be an option to upload a photo of that ship.
