I happened to be on the Circle Line with some friends when this happened. So, here's what I was able to see. No Camera, rassum frassum.
Engines 34, 54, 40. Trucks 21, 4, 2, and 35. Bn-9, R-1, Sq-18(Was talking to them after I got off the Circle Line), TAC-1, RAC-1 RB-1. Marine 1, 1A, 6(In the Kane) Numerous PD Harbor. Grabbed my friends camera and got some nice shots of Marine 1. Looks like everyone was accounted for by the time I pulled up, and there was possibly a delay of getting one of the cruise ships out of port.
