The page to which your link flows includes the following words

Begin quote
No part of the information contained in the MSD website and software may be stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form, or by any means without prior permission in writing from MSD.
The following actions are forbidden:
- Bulk-downloading of data contained on the site
- Use of downloaded data for financial gain
- Use of a robot or similar remote device to download large batches of data.
End Quote

It is probable that copyright lawyers would consider that Shipspotting is a retrieval system, and that uploading to it would be a transmittal.

Until written approval can be obtained and quoted as being from MSD, I believe information from MSD should not be uploaded to this site.

It's very out of date.  Fred Olsen's Balmoral (8506294) is still shown as Norwegian Crown over two years after it changed ownership and name, and was extended.
