FRONT SPARTA — Tanker · IMO 9847114

FRONT SPARTA has not broadcast an AIS position for 4 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Atlantic Ocean, on 2 Nov 2026, 09:06 UTC. It was sailing from AGIOI THEODOROI to FUNCHAL. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

FRONT SPARTA broadcasts MMSI 477591500 and is registered as IMO 9847114, with call sign VRTI4. 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.

FRONT SPARTA is classified as a tanker vessel registered under the HK flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full tanker fleet at /vessel-type/tanker and full HK flag list at /flag/hk.

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 tanker, FRONT SPARTA sits in the same design class as the other tankers listed in the Similar Vessels section of the vessel page, or in the full tanker directory at /vessel-type/tanker. FRONT SPARTA has a gross tonnage of 81,000 GT.
