Iran has effectively blocked the only way out of the Persian Gulf, leaving about 3,000 ships stranded. But two zombie ships appear to have sailed in and out of the Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz.

    It’s not even that involved. The crew can just type in whatever information they want, probably in a settings page on their chart plotter screen.

      True, what I was getting at is that AIS alone doesn’t prove that there is even any ship at all.

        Oh, yeah, true! Like those Virtual ATONs that are in common use.
