CHOU SHAN — Cargo · IMO 9296963

CHOU SHAN has not broadcast an AIS position for 206 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the Yellow Sea, on 14 Apr 2026, 18:24 UTC. It was sailing from BOFFA ANCH to HUANGHUA. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

CHOU SHAN broadcasts MMSI 371169000 and is registered as IMO 9296963, with call sign 3EBM7 . 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.

CHOU SHAN is classified as a cargo vessel registered under the PA 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 PA flag list at /flag/pa.
