That tells you what the name MEANS, not what the name IS. Your initiative is helpful John as it helps confirm the actual name.

"The Vigilant" (in the sense of a vigilant person) does indeed translate as آل اليقظة

The name of the ship is AL YAKADA (IMO 7920170). This is currently listed as EL YAM (البحر)(the sea), but clearly the name reverted to AL YAKADA by 2014 (or was never actually changed). All the photos on here show the same Arabic - compare particularly with http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=173165

Thank you John. It's a shame I don't have any mosques near me. I think the nearest is 100 miles away or I'll have to learn the language.
Regards,

Matty,
The vessel if the "VIGILANT". I asked one of our local mosques to translate it for me.
John.
