Low Bandwidth Vessel Positions

• To see all offshore vessels we track visit /position
• To get a position update via SMS send a text to +17638788944 with the vessel name. The message can only contain the vessel name. You should get an automatic reply within a couple minutes. It includes coordinates and the time of the fix in UTC. For example example, sending the word twig will result in a message that looks like "Twig - 32 22.783 N - 64 40.377 W - 2021-06-10 18:53UTC - 0.1 SOG - 145 COG". Speed Over Ground and Course Over Ground are simple calculations based on the previous position and time.
