[quote="Guest"]Speaking of AIS..

Three boats (that I can recall, there were more) had ETA times and dates from previous trips (PRT & Am Cen). In fact, Walter J. when she departed Duluth a couple of days and throughout most of her trip to St Clair still showed 6-10, the date of her arrival to Superior for repairs.

I don't believe it would be crew neglect on such a large scale. So, what/where would be the problem?[/quote]
Crew neglect is a little strong, but it is crew forgetfulness.

My vessel track function started working again. However the speed still needs fixing. The Burns harbor shows 118 knots, but if you open it's data box it shows the correct speed of 11.8 knots.

wow lake express is doing 318 knots

Oops! That should have been John B. Aird going to Burns Harbor, not the Burns Harbor.

I've been able to track but at 2:15 p.m., vessel were showing going warp speed!
Burns Harbor is entering Lake Huron, at Port Huron, going 47 knots, while Federal Leda, above Port Huron is zipping along at 85 knots, and McCarthy (between Harbor Beach and Port Sanilac at the time) is registering a speed of 117 knots and an ETA of 38 minutes to Port Huron! LOL!

I just tried it. It worked fine for me.

Is it just me, or has the vessel track function quit? Haven't been able to get it to show vessel tracks for about a week now.
