It also appears to use satellite AIS for location. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

If you zoom right in on land it becomes a very detailed road map of the World. I looked at the Isle of Wight to see if the Solent ferries were shown but they are not. However I went full zoom to Ventnor where I lived for period as a child. It even shows the Scale "model" Isle of Wight in the paddling pool on the Esplanade for any of you who know it! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Fine Whine Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Sorry to disappoint both of you but I would suggest it’s « down periscope » for now, neither of those two going anywhere for the next couple of months. Brigitte could be in for a longer wait...😳 Chris Link to post Share on other sites
TonyMWeaver Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 If the AIS on Cruise Mapper is correct, I can't see 'Galicia' arriving at 03:00 as scheduled. She's at least around 500 miles away from Singapore as of 21:00 this evening. Link to post Share on other sites

TonyMWeaver Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) Going by satellite tracking and past data, it looks like 'Galicia' will be around 14 hours behind schedule. AIS won't update until she's back in range, unless you pay for the premium software. Edited September 20, 2020 by TonyMWeaver Link to post Share on other sites
Gareth Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 6 hours ago, TonyMWeaver said: That is a whole 12 hours from your original guess. A bit harsh to call David’s original 0400 a “guess”. It was interpretation of the AIS ETA data. There was a legitimate discussion over whether that data meant 0300 or 0400, but neither of those figures was a guess. With Galicia still unexpectedly out of AIS range, we are now into “guess” territory, which is fair enough. I am wondering whether there was another secret port call in between that we have not seen? Odd that she would not have come back into AIS range if so, unless it was so secret they turned the AIS off or the port was so remote that there were no Marine Traffic receivers in the area. Maybe that’s a bit far-fetched and the more likely explanation is that she has just been in no hurry. (Or, of course, something may have gone wrong.) Link to post Share on other sites
Gareth Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I wonder what the weather’s been doing in the area? Over that distance, heavy seas could easily account for a 12-14 hour delay. Link to post Share on other sites
Gareth Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Marine Traffic is currently showing that there is a passenger vessel (picked up on the satellite AIS receivers and therefore not identified to non-subscription users of the site) heading towards Singapore on the line that Galicia would be on. This vessel looks like it is around 100 miles out. So if this vessel is, in fact, Galicia then David’s 1500 today estimate of arrival probably won’t be far out. Link to post Share on other sites
Chef Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) CruiseMapper appear to show her as doubling back and resuming her course a few times so either a mechanical kink to work out or killing time due to congestion at Singapore .

Gareth Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Is she the one that’s about 100 miles out Chef? Link to post Share on other sites
Gareth Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Maybe she had to respond to a Mayday or pan pan call. Link to post Share on other sites
