Where am I now?

Aruna has multiple tracking systems aboard. Most of them are on all the time, but some only really show useful information when I am on a trip.

The best way to track me is via my Saillogger page here. This automatically updates every few seconds, and unless I've had some terrible failure or am not connected to the Internet, should be the most reliable.

Automatic Identification System

Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a VHF radio based broadcast system that allows individual boats to share their location with base stations. I am a mobile base station myself, and gather data from other boats within my antenna range.

AIS requires a base station with an internet connection to work reliably. If my internet connection is not reliable, then I rely on a base station somewhere else picking up my VHF broadcasts. As a result, this position may not be 100% accurate or current – check the time stamp.
