All,
Recently took a cruise on the Celebrity Lines M/V Galaxy. The ship departed
from Baltimore (Dundalk Marine terminal). As we pulled out of the terminal a
CG 41-ft utility boat stood watch about 300-400 yds away as the ship
maneuvered out into the main channel. This patrol boat then followed the ship
out under the Key Bridge and down the Bay until the Bay Bridge.
On our return to Baltimore were were escorted by two CG 25-ft transportable
port security boats and a 41-ft utility boat. They escorted us from the Bay
Bridge until we were almost docked in Dundalk. These 25-ft boats had 50-cal
(I'm guessing) machine guns plainly visible. These 25-ft craft continually
criss-crossed in front and behind the ship as well as sweeping aling the
sides of the vessel. Perhaps they were looking for any "packages" being
dropped into the water or crewmen jumping into the water.
