A bit of info for anyone hoping to catch the arrival of USCGC EAGLE tomorrow, she's early, approaching Gravesend Reach inward at this time. No idea of her berth, probably West India Dock.

Regards

Why not take a look at my blog "SHIPS AND BOATS IN LONDON". It's my take on the river traffic in the City.

Hi,

I never had the chance to catch the EAGLE last week but I've heard that she is still in London's West India Dock with compass problems, can anyone comfirm this.

Shiptracker last entry was on the 9th when she arrived on the Thames
