Question 1

Where is MINRES BALDER right now?

Accepted Answer

MINRES BALDER has not broadcast an AIS position for 39 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the Indian Ocean, on 31 Jul 2026, 05:11 UTC. It was sailing from ASHBURTON to ONSLOW. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.
