I debated calling this Eagle 4 or Eagles 2 . . . but thought both would be misleading. It’s like this . . . at 1030 this morning, Eagle Boston was turning on the hook just inside the Narrows. See the 17-year-old tanker’s new baby sister here.
Around the same time, Ellen McAllister was eastbound on the KVK, although I knew not where bound. See third foto here for one of my older fotos of Ellen.
When Ellen arrived, flood tide was used to rotate the tanker and
get her headed inbound and past the tanker named for the river-god. I’m guessing Asopus is a variation of the same name as the upstate creek called Esopus.
The point here serves as an imaginary fulcrum for the turn into the KVK.
Amy C McAllister has the starboard side.
That’s a quite deep floating pool of oil.

Here was a similar foggy day in the sixth boro a few months back. AIS showed me this vessel with an auspicious name, and I figured it’d just magically turn clear if I went outside to watch. Frogma found fog more glorious than I did.
Wrong!! This is what fog looked like out there this morning. That’s Charles D. McAllister headed out to meet a huge orange containership. Somewhere off Charles D.‘s stern is the shiny new Curtis Reinauer . . . but obscured. What fog sounds like, though, is not captured here . . . low pitched blasts, penetrating yet not loud.
Up on the KVK . . . this vessel that I’d seen in port a month ago was at the dock, begging to be redubbed Foggy Venture.
Wolf River headed out as Chesapeake Coast pushed barge Chesapeake in.
R/V Seawolf passes by Sarasota on her way out as well.
Ellen McAllister joins Charles D. in assisting Rumanian-built Rio Madeira into a berth. On a clear day, this would look quite different.
FDNY M8 cruises out to the Narrows and back. Off the bow of M8, it’s Marie J. Turecamo assisting
Linda Moran over to Sarasota, where
Julia has just made a personnel call.
Cormorant throws wings up . . .when’s this going to clear?
Unrelated . . . but while I was studying AIS over coffee this morning, I saw that Ouro do Brasil was heading up Delaware Bay. Now that’s a vessel with a paint scheme I’d love to see. Anyone pass along fotos?
