Default SHIP obs

Could someone please suggest a good site for:
1. getting ships call signs
2. getting obs knowing those call signs.

I used to have these when I did not want them particularly; now I am back
from holiday and want to check some, I'm blowed if I can find them! Googling
has not been a happy experience here; I just cannot phrase the question to
get a small number of USEFUL sites.


To get a vessel from its callsign you can sign up to Equasis:

sailwx.info is another useful site but with AWS callsign masking the
number of vessels doing traditional "met" are set to decrease.
