Yeah, she's making good progress. I wonder if they'll let her dock if she arrives ahead of schedule, or if the ports are too busy to accommodate them.

I'm on until the last stop, Charleston (PCD). Though I live not far from Baltimore and it will kill me knowing that it's so close.

If they would not let her dock if early, I would think the captain would slow down. At about $1,000,000 usd a fillip (my googled guess), I would slow down.

They have designated parking lots for cargo ships to anchor in while waiting for port access -- I've seen many such ships near Bremerhaven -- but those are close to the mainland. For a ship to turn around and slow down to a crawl in the middle of the Atlantic? Either it's bad data, or someone fell overboard.

I was seeing this as well and it threw up a red flag… my son said “go check to see if NightWriter said anything about it”.

Maybe….
