How often is this departures board updated?

Vessel positions and sailings statuses refresh about every 30 seconds, from AIS positions matched against the published operator timetable.

Why does a sailing show no delay yet?

A delay figure appears only once a vessel on that sailing is transmitting a position we can compare with the schedule. Until then the row says scheduled, or not confirmed, rather than guessing.

Can I see another day's departures at Duke Point?

Yes. The date control on the board switches between today and tomorrow. Dated boards are marked noindex so they cannot compete with this page in search results.

Why is there no lane or berth column for departures at Duke Point?

Lanes are assigned by the operator's staff at check-in and printed on your ticket, and no lane map is published, so we do not show a column we would have to invent.

How these figures are measured

FerryFetch compares AIS vessel positions with the published operator timetable and flags a sailing as delayed past 5 minutes. An AIS tag beside an actual time means we observed the movement ourselves; a time without the tag was reported by the operator (hover it to see who). Deck-space figures are the operator’s own, refreshed on its schedule. Figures may differ from the operator’s official service information, and FerryFetch is not affiliated with Duke Point’s operator.
