For some of you who think that it would be so cool to go exploring.......... well I would be careful if I were you. Take a good look at that photograph. The door is partially submerged under-water. Who knows what creepy little creatures are there just waiting to take a bite out of your leg. Plus what is the flooring like? Are there holes somewhere?

All I am saying is please be careful!!!

I crawled around these wrecks in the 70s and they were in bad shape then. When they cave in they go fast and without warning. Enjoy the photos and stay safe. Also after all these years there really isnt anything left to see.

If what your saying about the ship is true FB Jim then that would explain whay the silo is covered on top. It looks like the ship has been there for a while. It also looks like the ship has some history to it.

The part of the boat that is above the water still looks safe enough to explore. I wounder what the inside of the boat looks like. If I could explore the boat I would because the boat looks really cool.

Your right Tim it is amazing how the boat is still standing. It looks like the boat is ready to cave in. I would still explore what is left of it if I could.

The inside of the boat looks cool. I would like to see what is inside the boat. If I could explore the boat I would. If I could rent a boat and explore the ships I would.

There are some ships that I would like to preserve because some of the ships look really cool. Some of the ships look like they are over a hundred years old. Some of the ships are pieces of history. That is why I would like to preserve some of the ships if I could. The boat looks like it has been there for a long time. The bridge of the boat looks safe enough to explore.

It looks like the last person who was on the boat left the door open. If I could explore the boat I would because the top deck still looks safe enough to walk on. I wouder what the inside of the boat looks like.
