FRANK JOHNSON — Local Vessel · IMO 8836613

FRANK JOHNSON has not broadcast an AIS position for 10 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Pacific Ocean, on 29 Oct 2026, 11:26 UTC. It was sailing from PORT ALLEN to ST LOUIS. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

FRANK JOHNSON broadcasts MMSI 367532840 and is registered as IMO 8836613, with call sign WDK9653. 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.

FRANK JOHNSON is classified as a local vessel vessel registered under the US flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full local vessel fleet at /vessel-type/cargo and full US flag list at /flag/us.
