Low spot on the marina

There were quite a few marinas on this side of the inlet, but this one by far had the most interesting scene.

Never seen a luxury yacht this color - hopefully it's going to be a reef for sea life when they finish with it.

My, this looks like it was quite the luxury yacht in its day. V

I bet this boat has a few tales to tell - well captured Helen V

Wow. That looks like it was an awfully expensive yacht to abandon to the elements. Cool find and capture, Helen.

Excellent image, Helen. I believe that it has been wrecked. A lot of rust on the hull. You can see where the water has been up on the white section (passenger compartment). You have presented this image, nicely. V.

Well thought image. It is a classic. I am sure that this ship has been wrecked. I am wondering, if some one plans on restoring it. It sure has a lot of rust, plus you see where the water line has been up on the white part (passenger compartment). Really outstanding, Helen. V.

Great shot of this unique scene. v

It certainly has seen better days. Appears to be listing badly and most likely has taken on quite a bit of water. I'm sure at one time it was a beautiful ship. Well captured!

Looks a little beyond repair.....
