From Worms to Cologne are 249 Rhine km, with a spreed from 15 km/h the ship must passed Cologne arround 09:00/10:00 LT. I was at the river at 08:00 LT and nothing see, so i think the ship is faster on tour than 15 km/h.
You're right. Based on the unconfirmed reports the ship was sighted at aproximately 18:00 at Zaltbommel. Zaltbommel is kmr 934. When the ship has left at 17:00 on Friday, this would mean it has travelled nearly 20km/h.

A good option is to look for this ship at the Willemstad lock.

I will try my luck to see the ship this afternoon near Tholen along the Schelde-Rijn channel.

Just coordinating a possible linkup so I don't have to spent my time alone watching millions of gallons of water passing by with an occasional barge floating on it.

The vessel was seen entering Antwerpen harbour near Zandvliet a short time ago [Credit: Patrick van Stiphout], taking a turn to the West, which is indeed in the general direction of Kaai 1241.

I've done some googling: Kaai 1241 is at the Vrasenedok. The Hazopweg in Beveren runs very close to the Vrasenedok, so that's the name of the road you want to enter into your GPS.

Happy hunting! :wink:

I managed to see more than just water today: today at Rilland-Bath (Kreekrak sluizen) the serial numbers of all the before mentioned KY ARNG UH-60's were read off on board the Dynamica and can be confirmed.

I was lucky today. my first stop was at the Kreekraksluizen around 18.00 but with no luck.
My second attemp to locate the ship was in Berendrecht near Antwerpen....... and there
it was waiting to enter the "Berendrecht" locks at GPS 51.34352, 4.28651. At 19.00 the ship was in the lock and you could see the Blackhawks from 2 meter distance. (and from both sides and above).

Abort were:

(86)-24539 UH-60A Det1 Co C/1-169 AVN/KY ARNG marked: 0-24539
(86)-24541 UH-60A Det1 Co C/1-169 AVN/KY ARNG marked: 0-24541
