[Andrew Leyden]

Just identified the unknown ship from an online photograph.

Turns out the ship was the EPA Research Vessel Peter W. Anderson. 
Formerly PG-86- USS Antelope.  Must be in Baltimore for something.

In other maritime news, the Japanese destroyer Setogiri   is in 
Baltimore as well.  It departs at 9:00 AM on Friday, for those 
interested in monitoring.

>>A ship has just sailed by and I can't figure out who it belongs to. 
>>It looks like a cutter, about 200 feet or so, but it is all white 
>>with a large, diagonal green (or blue) stripe down the side.  It 
>>doesn't look to have armaments (but it is far away) but does have 
>>what looks to be a small boat launch on back and several antennas 
>>on the mast.  Definitely no USCG markings or NOAA markings.

>>Does Customs have ships like this?  DHS?  Maybe a Canadian vessel 
>>(cannot see any flags).
