Thanks. I'm thrilled to finally have a ship of "my own" to track.

It arrived at port around 6:00 am London time (GMT or Zulu). It's 3 PM GMT now, so I would guess it will leave the port some time in the next few hours.

I wish we could set up an automatic alert when the ship starts moving again. Would be fun to track it out of the port before we lose sight of it.

Here's a web cam of Southampton port http://www.southamptonvts.co.uk/webcams.htm. (damn the image just went down... this site is also broadcasting the same web cam image: http://www.bbc.co.uk/hampshire/conte...s_webcam.shtml)

According to AISLive site, the Hual Africa is at the QEII cruise terminal in slip 39 which is directly in sight of the web cam image.

Looks like pretty lousy weather, but the sun just came out briefly allowing me to spot the Hual Africa just behind the Morning Calm (also owned by Höegh Autoliners so they look alike.)
