FORTITUDE — Pleasure Craft · IMO 8653310

FORTITUDE has not broadcast an AIS position for 87 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the Gulf of Mexico, on 14 Aug 2026, 14:02 UTC. It was sailing from PUERTO DEL REY to FORT LAUDERDALE. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

FORTITUDE broadcasts MMSI 319235100 and is registered as IMO 8653310, with call sign ZGQJ9. 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.

FORTITUDE is classified as a pleasure craft vessel registered under the KY 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 KY flag list at /flag/ky.

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.

FORTITUDE is classed by AMERICAN BUREAU OF SHIPPING, the classification society responsible for inspecting the vessel against safety, structural and operational rules. As a pleasure craft, FORTITUDE 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. FORTITUDE has a gross tonnage of 398 GT.
