How to see where Awildian is right now
03 August 2022 | Croatia
Vandy Shrader
This will be a short post, to tell you how to see our current position. I've changed the method I use to track and display our position.
To see where we are right now, find the link in the right-hand blog sidebar that says "Where we are right now." It will be in the LINK section, near the bottom of the sidebar. The link will take you to MarineTraffic.com, which keeps track of all boats with AIS (automatic identification system).
I have it set up to take you directly to Awildian's location. When you get to MarineTraffic.com, a small window will pop up in front of the map. Just click the "x" in the box to make it go away. You should then be able to see a flashing circle indicating where Awildian is.
You can zoom in or out using the + or - in the upper right-hand corner of the map. You can also toggle between a satellite picture or a map by clicking on the "Layers" menu item on the left-hand sidebar (see my photo below). This will give you a window with a selection of Map Types to choose from.
