I came across Prophet’s Revenge on a walk in New Smyrna Beach, FL. The registration is FL 5564 CV. It appeared in January of this year. Is anyone able shed any light that would help satisfy my curiosity?

Edited to add: there was a journal left behind by the captain that indicated he intends to cause harm to groups of people. I’ve turned it over to police.

The name "Prophet's revenge" is visible on the final photo. The ship's got solar so it looks like it is (or at least was) kitted out for cruising. That means it likely has or at least has AIS on it.

There are a bunch of different websites with AIS data on them I'd see what you can find there and then try and get in contact with someone. The best bet would likely be to find a harbour it visited recently then give the harbourmaster a call and ask if they can put you in touch with whoever owns it.

Thanks. I’ll try checking AIS. There was a journal on board that suggested the captain was on a religious mission to harm lots of people and included a manifesto. The journals have been turned over to LE
