Updated tour times for the Eagle in Astoria, and a listener question about the ship

Here is the latest info, which I received Monday night, directly from the Coast Guard, regarding tours of the USCG Barque Eagle, which will be in Astoria beginning Friday. Note that this differs slightly from previous schedules which had Friday Tours beginning in the morning:

And just to verify:
