First port of call (as it were) when you see strange shipping behaviour is marinetraffic.com. There you can learn the name of the ship, and start a deep dive (as it were) into what it's up to. Source: 8 months ago
I have searched for the vessel on marinetraffic.com and found some info for it from the USCG Maritime info exchange, but have not been able to locate it. Size: 50.7 feet, origin: USA, Gulf of Mexico, built in 1948, originally named Brigadiere Jr, renamed to Capt Hunter. Source: 11 months ago
Assuming the cruise is following the same pattern the prior week, use marinetraffic.com to track and you'll see the precise location. Know that it might change. Source: about 1 year ago
a large portion of the data marinetraffic.com has is people with a AIS setup like pi+daisyHat standing at home and sending in updates. (If you are in a area they dont have good coverage in I belive you can still fill out a form on their site to ask for a free kit). Source: about 1 year ago
If you're in to trying to catch them from land, arm yourself with information. If you have a Facebook account, join "Whale Sightings in the San Juan Islands". Look at an AIS site (example: marinetraffic.com) and search for whale watching boats. Familiarize yourself with the public areas for whale watching (Lime Kiln, County Park, Cattle Point, etc). That should get you 90% there. Source: about 1 year ago

Thanks for the HN treatment. As a followup piece, a Google response of this being "a bug". Followup story, my return rate for CC licensed images of "dog" went from 3 to 13.

Last time I've checked, Creative Commons had their own search for things under their licenses. But now apparently that project got transferred to WordPress and is now named Openverse: https://wordpress.org/openverse/?referrer=creativecommons.org Anyways, I'd argue that's the most comprehensive database of CC-licensed works. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
> In addition, a searchable database of Creative Commons works would be a welcome addition to the Internet. Openverse is a CC search engine with 600 million items: https://wordpress.org/openverse/ And of course, Google Images supports CC search for images. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
