Vessel details
Open a vessel from the overview to see its details screen. It gathers everything SHIPM8 knows about the ship in one place.
The main panel
- Vessel details — the ship's name, identifiers (call sign, IMO, MMSI, ENI, fishery number), flag, ship type, and its dimensions (length, width, GT, DWT, max draft). A photo is shown when one is available.
- Tags — any labels applied to the vessel. See Tags.
- Extra fields — your own added information, grouped under headings. See Custom fields.
The side panel
- Current location — a small map showing where the vessel is now (when position data is available).
- Track — the vessel's recent track.
- Port visits — a list of the vessel's most recent port visits. Click one to open it, or use more port visits to see the full history (requires the port-visits permission).
- Files — documents attached to the vessel.
Actions
Depending on your permissions and whether it's one of your own vessels, the header and panel offer:
- Edit — change the vessel (your own vessels only). See Edit or delete a vessel.
- My fleet (star) — add the vessel to a fleet group on the map.
- Ship tags — add or change tags.
- Add attribute — add an extra field.
- Original — for one of your own vessels that's based on a shared one, jump to the shared original.
