Here's what hopefully will be the last update on the Mermaid via Satellite. She's slowed down to 12 Knots and is close.

Mermaid Ace'rs, as I'm visiting folks here at the Cape just a few miles from where the boat is, I can tell you that the winds are strong and ocean is choppy!

Maverick787 and I are waiting for any news on the Clover Ace which has all but disappeared!

I use Fleetmon.com. For a ship out of terrestrial tracking range, you can look at this thread for details on how to track via AIS Satellite: https://rennlist.com/forums/991-gt3/...ange-ship.html

It costs about $3 per Sat update and they only update it every 2-8 hours.

I guess we popped out of terrestrial range and back on the Satellites. Here's a recent update. I have one credit left to Satellite track if we need it, but I don't think we will. It looks like it should dock after midnight.

Heroic Ace (coming from NY & Baltimore?) is minutes behind the Mermaid.

Docked!!!

Fascinating to "watch" the tugs turn the Mermaid Ace and help her back into docking position.

Let the unloading begin.
