Yep Chris nailed it
Ships are rendered around 35km from you
Maybe further
In rough weather they are moved and the longer you stay within render range but out of visual range they continue to do so
As you get close the ports are rendered
Often on top of ships
Oddly enough land units are rendered before ports giving some odd pics if you use ext cam

Dont know if you have noticed but when heading for home at high TC the comp will lag to a stop at ship render range then move again only to stop again at port render range before carrying on

Maybe was one of the reason the devs left ports empty
