Loading at Dundalk Terminal Baltimore the ship in front of us pulled out first, I snapped a couple photos as she slid by.

Here she is sliding past using two tugs.

Here is the same same ship a few days later as we are both southbound in the Gulf of Suez after leaving the canal.
It's common to see the same ship during a voyage. Often the same ships will be ahead or behind you for the entire voyage. It's like driving a bus on a bus route.

KC,
I was a Baltimore Harbor tug captain for 15 years and helped many a ship in and out of Dundalk Marine Terminal. . . although I usually saw the scene from a lower vantage point!
Hope you enjoyed your time in Balto. I've worked in busier ports, but Baltimore is a nice, compact place with some challenging berths - especially for carships in a strong NW!
