Picture taken from about 39°02.6' N, 76°13.5' W. The Ever Forward is (still) at about 39°06.7' N, 76°23.5' W, so about 8.8 nmi from me. The camera was about 3 m above the waterline. Range tables say the horizon should be blocking the bottom 6 m or so above the waterline, but I don't have information on how much of the hull is above the waterline (beyond "not enough") to make a comparison.
(I'll try to get better pictures tomorrow if it doesn't go anywhere.)
