While surfing through another web site, I found a URL for Live Ships Map - AIS - Vessel Traffic and Positions, that tracks ships, including cruise lines. While it's not world wide, it does show the Cape Canaveral port. Here's the URL for that: Live Ships Map - AIS - Vessel Traffic and Positions

Right now (Sat morning 0720) it's showing the Disney Magic and Carnival Glory in port, and you can click on a ship and see it's track, etc. I can't seem to find the Wonder, though.

Hey, that's kinda cool. Thanks for posting it!

Thanks for the link!!

Thanks for the link. I saw the Magic and 2 Carnival ships in port...I wonder if it really is live - I guess a peek at about 5:00 this afternoon will tell us that!

Well, it's 5:15 pm, and the data is showing the Magic coming out in the channel,
which was confirmed via web-cam. Mousing-over said the data was about 2 - 4 minutes old. It looks like it just tracks ships near ports, and not near the Bahamas, so that's why we can't find the Wonder, which should be at Castaway Cay.

The Wonder is currently in port.

Thanks for the link.

That is pretty cool, only I think that the images are from this morning, the same truck is still crossing the street. But I have been checking it all day, too much fun!

Great site!!!!

I found the wonder over the weekend on its way to Nassau, but yesterday, Sunday, I couldn't find either one.

Still, fun to try and track them!

How cool! Thanks for the link!

If you read the FAQ, it's only good for usually 15-20 miles from the receivers, which are deployed on a volunteer basis (typically). It doesn't look like there's a receiver in the Bahamas, so once it gets away from the Florida coast, there'll be no tracking.
