It now seems highly unlikely that REVELLE and RIDE will be berthed next to each other (stem-to-stern); rather, it looks like they will be berthed across from each other on opposite sides of Pier 91. Unfortunately, Pier 90 is not available for us due to US Navy and fishing vessel congestion.  See the attached image for the currently planned berthing arrangement at Pier 91.

Fueling by barge and other ship movements at Pier 91 may be restricted by the USCG while cruise ships are at berth - our activities in this regard may be limited to 1800-0400 (when there are no cruise ships at berth).  Alternatively, we are looking at fueling REVELLE and RIDE on arrival day (Aug 3 & 4 respectively) at a fuel pier at the opposite end of Elliott Bay; then each vessel would shift to Pier 91 later on arrival day (after 1700-1800 when the cruise ships are gone).
