Hi,

I'm tracking a vessel called Ulysses.  However, when I search for "Ulysses" in Marine Traffic under vessels, it never shows up.  However, I found the vessel on the map and it is labelled "ULYTSSES" not "ULYSSES".  When you look up the ship's Vessel Details, the ship is called "Ulysses" with Call Sign: V2CB3, IMO: 9364203, MMSI: 304969000.  This seems to be a typographical error that is messing up the database.  How does this get corrected?

Thanks.

Typically, that information comes from the AIS data the ship itself is transmitting - so, there may not be much recourse if you do not have direct contact with the crew.
