Hi!

Are you using GWX? If so, the ship furthest from you is a lightship. See p. 438 in the GWX Manual V2.1 for details.

Yeah sorry should have said. Using GWX2.0 with Sh3Commander. Never seen this here before though. The lightship never registers as anything.

Looks like they got the lightship possibly classed as "enviromental" in the 2.0/21 release-that is probably why it will not register. Using shIII generator I have noticed they will show on the 'generated' map in game as Icebergs.

ummm yeah saw that also in Sh3Gen. Thanks guys!

But what is that Dutch ship doing just sitting there stationary like that?! Interesting.... I say send it to the bottom, just to be sure!

The Dutch ship is there to alert you and your crew to the presence of the lightship. The lightship will not be reported by your crew since it is an environmental object.

Yep, every lightship has a tug along to service it.
