HDW HERKULES — Fishing · IMO 5148754

HDW HERKULES has not broadcast an AIS position for 190 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Sea, on 30 Apr 2026, 04:41 UTC. It was sailing from KIEL to ESBJERG. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

HDW HERKULES broadcasts MMSI 211399000 and is registered as IMO 5148754, with call sign DKGN. 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.

HDW HERKULES is classified as a fishing vessel registered under the DE flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full fishing fleet at /vessel-type/fishing and full DE flag list at /flag/de.
