The original and most highly rated ship tracking app

Our popular Ship Finder apps have been featured in maritime and sailing publications and websites across the globe.

Don’t take our word for it – check out our ratings and the wide range of positive press we’ve had across the world.

Ship Finder provides near real time “virtual radar” AIS maps. It’s easy to use and is an amazing app for anyone interested in shipping, cruising and sailing in ports and locations across the world. It’s also great if you simply want to know what boats are out there or want to see where your friends and family are.

Features include:

Live moving ships
Ship route trails
Search by vessel name
Ship information such as – Vessel Name, Port of Registration, Destination, ETA
Technical information such as – MMSI, IMO, Callsign , Heading, Length, Width, Draft

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.
