Bang on Beachbum.
If you search the forum's archives I think you'll find "A Ship in the Belfry" that I wrote a few years ago. The Pittsburgh had run aground on rocks just off Libau, Latvia, and had punctured her double bottom in several places. HMS Dauntless stood by to assist and was the relieved by USS Frederick. The two American ships headed to Sheerness and eventually the Pittsburgh was brought up river to be dry-docked.
Over to you.
