Hi Dave -
Penny and I just docked in Jacksonville following a delightful 2.5 day,
glassy offshore passage from Beaufort NC to Jacksonville FL. Great motorboat wx!
As we passed Tybee Roads, the AIS display from an inbound tow listed their
destination as Philadelphia. Penny had to yank the mic from my hand as I was
switching the VHF to 13 to tell him that he couldn't get to Philly from
Savannah. Point is we see incorrect and missing info all the time; who will enforce
it? No one, methinks. Sort of like red light enforcement in the USA has
become - the cops are apathetic.
Happy Thanksgiving to all, and regards,
John
"Seahorse"
PS - Dave - Yikes - send us some cheap Diesel!
Dave asked > Is there anyway of reporting a ship that is "missing" an AIS
signature?
