Anyone who has not read Robert Massie’s “Dreadnaught” and “Castles of Steel” is missing one of the great pleasures in naval history.

Fantastic video. that ship graveyard is up near Rossville there is another one further down by Kreischlerville. The ferry was on the Jersey side and you can see the old Coal dumper in the background which is actually on the National Register of Historic Structures since it is one of only a handful left in the US.

There are over 200 abandoned ships in Mallows Bay on the Chesapeake. Quite scenic if you are in a melancholy mood.
