Ship Finder works by picking up AIS ship feeds used by all passenger vessels, vessels over 300 tons and increasingly smaller pleasure craft. This technology is actually faster than radar and is used directly by vessels for navigation.
Our global coverage is impressive and expanding all of the time, please check www.shipfinder.co regularly for current coverage.

Superb app in the Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. No known AIS transmitters are missed. Surprisingly, also worked in most major China ports on a recent trip.
