Fishing

The Yong Fa 9 is directly associated with fishing concerns such as AIS darkness.

View notes

AIS Darkness: Since February 2018, the Yong Fa 9 has disabled its
AIS
for at least 3,934 hours (163 days). These instances of
AIS
darkness occurred across the Northwestern and Northern Pacific Ocean and Argentine Sea. This matters because so-called “AIS darkness” is a likely indicator of criminal activity at sea, including illegal fishing, smuggling, and sanctions evasion.
