It is Sun, 11:40pm EST (Mon, 0440z).
Comms are continuing between USCG CAMSLANT-Chesapeake and the
disabled tanker M/V Maersk Scotland on 4125 kHz USB.
Comms are loud and clear into my qth.
The Maersk Scotland reports his position as 35-11.8 North, 73-43.13
West.
The Maersk Scotland also reports that he has established comms with
the vessel "K MacAllister."

At 1057 reported to CAMSLANT that they were being towed by the K. MacAllister to
Chesapeake Bay. Also heard CAMSLANT in comms with K. MacAllister.

Here's some info about the Maersk Scotland:
