BLACK RHINO — Cargo · IMO 9148790

BLACK RHINO has not broadcast an AIS position for 117 days. The most recent broadcast placed it, on 13 Jul 2026, 22:03 UTC. It was sailing from BATA to DOUALA. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

BLACK RHINO broadcasts MMSI 209437000 and is registered as IMO 9148790, with call sign 5BCX5. The MMSI is the radio identifier used by AIS; the IMO number stays with the ship for life and does not change with re-flagging or sale.

BLACK RHINO is classified as a cargo vessel registered under the CY flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full cargo fleet at /vessel-type/cargo and full CY flag list at /flag/cy.
