Two Eagle Hours

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.
