How to Track the Sapphire Princess Cruise Ship
One way that cruise ships transmit their position is with the Long Range Identification and Tracking (LRIT) system. According to the US Coast Guard Navigation website, ships belonging to member states that must follow the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) are required to transmit their location on a regular basis. Tracking receivers pick up this information and can provide a ship's location through Internet ship tracking website.
