HKFSD FIREBOAT 11 — SAR · MMSI 477996963

HKFSD FIREBOAT 11 has not broadcast an AIS position for 39 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the South China Sea, on 29 Sep 2026, 08:45 UTC. It was sailing from LAMMA ISLAND to HONG KONG. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

HKFSD FIREBOAT 11 broadcasts MMSI 477996963, with call sign FBT11. 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.

HKFSD FIREBOAT 11 is classified as a sar vessel registered under the HK flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full sar fleet at /vessel-type/tug-pilot-vessel and full HK flag list at /flag/hk.
