AFRICAN DOVE — Cargo · IMO 9682772

AFRICAN DOVE has not broadcast an AIS position for 202 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Atlantic Ocean, on 18 Apr 2026, 22:10 UTC. It was sailing from DAKAR to DAKAR ANCH. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

AFRICAN DOVE broadcasts MMSI 311000205 and is registered as IMO 9682772, with call sign C6BA2 . 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.

AFRICAN DOVE is classified as a cargo vessel registered under the BS 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 BS flag list at /flag/bs.
