   We will indeed have a lot work to define the exact boundaries for all the covered ports.
   For now this is an automatic calculation, which narrows Ship-Position to the nearest City with more than 5000 inhabitants in a radius of 25km. This will produce some faults in the naming, but gives at least a good idea (verbally), where the vessel is located. Area / Zone alerts will be the next step.

   Thanks to all members in this little contest!

   Seems like Ports is a new -beta- addition. I have checked only ports in Poland – Gdynia and Gdansk. They both are close one to other, but it looks like their boundaries are defined wrong. Looks like a limit between those two is set on 54°33′N where it should be rather 54°29′N. This way vessels in port of Gdynia would actually be visible on Gdynia tab. Overall I like this new addition. Keep on good job.

   Port of Newcastle upon Tyne is actually caled Port of Tyne. The following ships are in The Port of Blyth, about 7 miles north of the Tyne:- Henny, Lilly Mitchell, OSC Victoriadiep, Tina C.
