TANGA MPYA — Tug · IMO 9894442

TANGA MPYA has not broadcast an AIS position for 64 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the Indian Ocean, on 4 Sep 2026, 13:19 UTC. It was sailing from TANGA to TANGA ANCH. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

TANGA MPYA broadcasts MMSI 376899000 and is registered as IMO 9894442, with call sign J8B6349. 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.

TANGA MPYA is classified as a tug vessel registered under the VC flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full tug fleet at /vessel-type/tug-pilot-vessel and full VC flag list at /flag/vc.

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 tug, TANGA MPYA sits in the same design class as the other tugs listed in the Similar Vessels section of the vessel page, or in the full tug directory at /vessel-type/tug-pilot-vessel.
