I have used that site for a long time now and find it interesting.

Where are the Russian ships? I will have a look to see where they go.

Probably they are too big to get up the Leeds Liverpool canal so we can rest in peace.

It's a great site, I first came across it when that Irish ferry was stuck on Blckpool sands a few years ago.

As well as Russian trawlers, there are vessels from Iceland, Faeroes, Holland, France, UK and Lithuania in that cluster. There must be a heck of a lot of fish!

A lot of them pull into Aberdeen & yes I'm aware of the AIS, due to my Dad's ship spotting tendencies & I did make mention of it in a blog I wrote a while back.

Oh look ..... More Ships ! - Accrington Web

For those of you who may be mildly interested.

Yes we have, but he was arrested yesterday for doing it in a public place.
