7304-1 Container Ship Maersk Gateshead and tugs Lynne Moran and Gramma Lee T Moran

In my 12 minute 4K video below she can be seen arriving on the Patapsco River as the Coast Guard buoy tender William Tate departs. As she nears it is clear life at sea has done a number on her paint job. After passing under the Key Bridge tug Lynne Moran is seen alongside. In the next seen tug Gramma Lee T Moran can be seen peaking out from the other side of the ship.
