Interesting. In his memoirs, W.T. Sherman recounts how as a young officer posted to California, he traveled by ship, all the way around Tierra del Fuego and back north. IIRC, Sherman’s ship was wrecked in the approach to SF Bay...

I thought that a ghost ship was a ship that was abandoned but still floating and just moving around the oceans.

The site provides an address that has a clickable inventory of pics, etc. of ships sunk in that area. On my DSL, some are sloooow loads.

I downloaded the mov tugboat file, 15 minutes for video shots of stern and hull.

More here concerning the lost ships.

Keith Miller and crew of ocean going tugboat were lost at sea in this area many years ago. Keith was a friend of mine.

The seas can be unforgiving, as was the case here.
