Where Is Vasco da Gama Right Now?
This position is 38 hours old.
We have not received an AIS report from Vasco da Gama since then, so the position below is the last one we could confirm and not where she is now. Gaps like this are normal at sea: AIS relies on shore stations and satellites, and coverage drops on open ocean and in remote regions such as Alaska and the far north.
Vasco da Gama's last known position was 13nm south-west of Port of Busan.
