Free AIS tracking site

Recently I found a very usefull AIS tracker (VesselFinder). It has not so good coverage like MarineTraffic but in some areas US and WestEurope is better. The interface is quicker and more user friendly

I tried to open it but no luck. I'm on a boat at present and when at sea internet is very slow. All the sites are too bandwidth intensive for us boat guys.

Not a very good site actually, since it doesn't include any of the vessel information on the map.
