EMPIRE — Pleasure Craft · MMSI 244139562

EMPIRE has not broadcast an AIS position for 26 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Sea, on 13 Oct 2026, 13:10 UTC. It was sailing from BRUINISSE to BROUWERSHAVEN. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

EMPIRE broadcasts MMSI 244139562, with call sign PB7026. 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.

EMPIRE is classified as a pleasure craft vessel registered under the NL flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full pleasure craft fleet at /vessel-type/yacht and full NL flag list at /flag/nl.

MarineRadar shows the latest AIS broadcast from EMPIRE above, with current position, course, speed, and navigation status. Tap "View on map" to centre the live tracker on the vessel and watch its movement update in real time. The same data is available offline-friendly in the iOS and Android apps.

AIS transponders broadcast position every 2 seconds when underway at high speed and up to every 3 minutes at anchor. The position you see refreshes whenever the ship is in range of a coastal AIS receiver or a satellite pass — typically seconds in coastal waters and minutes offshore.

As a pleasure craft, EMPIRE sits in the same design class as the other pleasure crafts listed in the Similar Vessels section of the vessel page, or in the full pleasure craft directory at /vessel-type/yacht.
