Information update:: Merseyside Added to Watch

Posted by Forth & Clyde Control on 29-11-2025 12:18

I have now added Merseyside to the watches available in the top menu...as the Clyde in particular shares many visitors that go to Liverpool and in general it contains a lot of interesting vessels in its daily movements, I decided along with extending the North Channel to cover the Irish Sea in general, the addition of Merseyside is a timely step.

Vessels are updated as often as I can spare the time to do so, and generally speaking most vessels are 'caught' in the Irish Sea area before entering the Mersey, but often I miss these so having the ships that have by-passed my watches elsewhere included via Merseyside, it ensures the database is better updated.

There are now over 1,500 ships illustrated in the vessel's database, a number that will grow as time goes on...once I am satisfied saturation is being reached with our current 'viewports', I will also add other regions like Bristol Channel to complete our capabilities in the Western British Seaboard and Irish Ports.
