SuperRonin: flag and class circulars in one line, with a bell

The first pilot of SuperRonin asked for this a day after the certificate register went up. A superintendent already tells us the ship's class society and its flag. Every circular those two publish should then reach him by itself, as a short bulletin: one line and a link to the circular on the administration's site.

That is how it works now. The vessel card has three fields with suggestions: flag administration, class society and P&I club. Pick from the list and the card says whether we read that issuer and when we last checked it. Every 3 hours SuperRonin opens the public circular list of each issuer that at least one vessel follows and stores what is new.

What you see:

• News → Circulars, a page with every circular of your vessels' issuers: date, issuer, number and title as the issuer printed them. The title opens the original document. Unread rows are marked.
• A bell in the sidebar. New circulars land there, and so do due dates of certificates, surveys and conditions crossing 90, 60, 30, 14 and 7 days. A reminder opens its row in the register.
• An email bulletin with one line per circular and the link. Each person can switch it off on the Circulars page; the bell keeps ringing.
• Latest circulars on each vessel card, the five newest for that ship.

The first issuer we read is the Zanzibar Maritime Authority, which runs the Tanzania Zanzibar international register. Its list goes back to 2017 and had 23 entries this year by late October, several of them about statutory certificates: improper extensions, reporting of surveys to the registry, recognized organizations that lost their authorization. The Hellenic Classification Society publishes a digest of the same circulars plus Tokyo and Paris MoU notices; when both list one document, you get one row marked with both sources.

We copy only the number, the date and the title, and link the issuer's own file. No copies of PDFs, no summaries. A summary can be wrong, and the issuer's document is the one that counts.

Next on the list: more flags and IACS societies, the P&I clubs of the International Group, port State control regimes and the IMO itself. If your flag or class is missing, write to [email protected] and say which one. Tracking the same ships on the map lives on /fleet/.
