Vesselfinder Alternatives
In addition to Vesselfinder, there are a handful of other maritime traffic monitoring and vessel display companies with detailed information on all ships worldwide. The most widely used service is Marine Traffic . The basic functionality is the same, but it offers a few more features, such as direct search of ships or ship-type filtering.
