THE BIG LINKS LOCKER:

UNLOCKING THE MARITIME WORLD: Our mission is literally to  unlock the maritime world by making all English language maritime data easy to find,  available, evaluated when possible, and affordable. We suggest checking our subject pages to your right first, by clicking on the subject section most like your particular interest.  If that doesn't answer your question come back here and click any of the "super links" below that appear most appropriate, the broadest and most general is hyper linked just below. This is an entire web site of nothing but links to maritime websites and blogs of every description. Known as "THE MOTHER OF ALL MARITIME LINKS or JOHN'S NAUTICAL LINKS LIST it is the privately created and maintained links list of John Konhen of Eugene Oregon. It is one of the most useful sites for the maritime researcher on the internet and deserves you support. Please click on the "appreciate this site button" at some point and do what you can to support this worthwhile endeavor.

"The Mother of All Maritime Links":  http://www.boat-links.com/boatlink.html 

If you don't find the book you need among those we have reviewed so far or linked to click into the Amazon general search engine via the link below or as provided within our special interest sections.  

GENERAL MARITIME BOOK SEARCH :

ADMIRALTY BOOK SEARCH AT AMAZON (All works with "admiralty in title")

ADMIRALTY BOOKS AT AMAZON


We think the following links to major sites aligned with our "Special Interest Pages" can often provide answers to commonly asked questions:

ADMIRALTY or MARITIME LAW:

http://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/admiralty

DO YOU NEED TO TRACK A SHIP,  PERHAPS FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS? TRY THE FOLLOWING:
Here are some sample vessel tracking sites that provide some free services:

http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/default.aspx?centerx=30&centery=25&zoom=2&level1=140

http://www.vesselfinder.com/


The above links are AIS based systems. AIS can be spoofed, not all services update as frequently as others. The free services are particularly subject to out dated information or vulnerable to spoofing. When you absolutely must have the exact information on a ship's location, as when an admiralty lawyer is attempting to serve process there is no substitute for Lloyd's Intelligence Services, a service of Lloyds of London. Lloyds charges for its services but not only uses modern AIS tracking but maintains a world wide net work of commercial intelligence agents around the world who check custom houses and for official entry pratique,and clearance data. Lloyds finds your ship in the world and for a reasonable fee tracks it until it is about to enter any port you name where you may effect service of process.    http://www.lloydslistintelligence.com/llint/index.htm;jsessionid=CBFA578AB8B6CCE32326F71B4558C59A
