The Coast Guard Image: She floats- but that’s it

Here we have, again, the CGC Staten Island (on right); only this time we’ve got a shot of her during a towing evolution of the now dead CGC Padre which was part of the 110 to 123 conversion. I would consider this a good picture as it depicts the truth that they could “float” but that’s the only conclusion I can gain from the photo, which again was taken by EM1 Chris Miller.

    Rumor is that one of the 123s had to be taken out of the water in Baltimore because it was sinking. It also appears that the corrosion breach was in a new metal area.
