      Their is the wreckage a small vessel called the Chancellor where i go on holiday. It was a steam trawler. It ran aground during a storm in January 1934. The boiler and a small part of the hull remain on the beach. On holiday, i have waked to the wreck as it mainly on the sand and partially in the rock pool. The Chancellor could be a good ship for a part 2 to the video.
      Great video as always. Keep up the good work. I really love your videos😁😁😁😁

      USS Cairo (pronounced "kay-ro") in Vicksburg MS is really cool, it's the remains of a civil war era ironclad that has been pulled from the mud and reassembled on a giant wooden frame that you can walk through. There is also an attached museum with all of the artifacts found along with the ship, like munitions and supplies that were on board.

    Nice video! Another ship that is (somewhat) above water is the German cruiser Prinz Eugen, which capsized at Kwajalein Atoll, near the Marshall islands. After Operation Crossroads in 1946, various leaks, mainly in the stern, went unrepaired due to the radioactivity of the ship, and was moved to Kwajalein Atoll, where by December of 1946, Prinz Eugen capsized. The propellers and rudder equipment are visible above the water, roughly 2.5 miles northwest of the Bucholz Army airfield. Yet another one is the S.S. Monté Carlo, which grounded on Coronado Beach near San Diego in 1937, and remnants of it’s hull still lie on the beach to this day.

It sits right next to Land's End in Cornwall, on a buynch of rocks, though gettin down to it might be a bit dangerous, as you have to nagivate a steep, slippery pathway down to ts resting place.

    Back in the 1980's, I drove along the coast of Maine. There I saw numerous wooden ships (schooners and clippers) sunk in shallow bays. I never learned the story, but presumably they were simply forgotten and left to sink. I regret not stopping to swim out and see them.

    Kudos to the boat club for not deciding their boats are worth way more than the wreck of the old submarine and scrapping. We have way to many cases of such things being destroyed because someone values their dock, road, house, etc more than history.

    In the small ocean side town of Aptos just south of Santa Cruz CA, there’s a wrecked ship made of concrete from WW1. The SS Palo Alto was cargo ship made from concrete due to war time rationing of steel, however the war ended before she could be used. Sitting in San Francisco Bay for a few years, the town of Aptos bought her in the 1920s to be used as a seaside attraction for Seacliff Beach. She was towed, beached, had a pier built to her and was converted into a restaurant, hotel, dance hall, and supposedly a speakeasy in one of the old cargo holds.
    Over time though it became increasingly more expensive to maintain her, and the company operating her went bust. After many decades of storms and abandonment, the forward half of the ship was closed off for safety reasons in the 80/90s. By around 2000 the whole ship was closed off, I don’t remember ever walking on the wreck as a child but my parents tell me they used to take me out on it before it was closed. Over the years the ship broke in half in the middle, then another two times into 4 pieces with her stern rolling partly over onto its side. In the beginning of 2023, the 100 year old pier was smashed by that massive week long storm that flooded parts of Santa Cruz and Monterey. As part of the clean up for Seacliff Beach, what little reminded of the pier was demolished.
    The wreck of the Palo Alto, or The Cement Ship as we call it, is still there for people to visit and kayak around, its become a bit of a bird sanctuary as well with how many pelicans set up shop there

      There's a WWI-era concrete ship wreck off the coast of Cape May, NJ also. The USS Alantus. Very little is left of it today but back in the '90s it was much more visible when taking the ferry between Cape May, NJ and Lewes, DE across the Chesapeake Bay. Interesting to learn that there's a similar shipwreck with a similar history in CA as well!

    • @kyleshape8645
      @kyleshape8645 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      @christopherweise438 Yup. The water is extremely cold; near freezing, and anaerobic, meaning very little marine life can survive down there. This often means that not only are the ships preserved, but so are the crew. The famous example being the unknown engineer in the engine room of the _Kamloops_ called "Old Whitey" for the adipocere that preserves his body against decay. More superstitious divers describe his ghost as following them throughout the ship, lonely, but otherwise friendly as he's happy to have visitors over where he rests.

    theres a second ship called the demetrios that wrecked and visitable! (If you're willing to go for a small hike that it), it's off Prawle Point in south Devon, a well-known ship trap. At low tide the engine block is visible just off the rocks, one of the funnels is locked in the cliff, and a turbine is in a rockpool. It was being towed from Dublin to Greece (I think) in December in the early nineties, when a storm hit and the tug boat taking the ship decided they would rather deal with a wrecked ship than a wrecked crew, they all made it out alive and the wreck was deemed to be too far gone and not enough of an environmental hazard to need to be moved. It split in two in the rough seas, with both halves lodges in the rock, one half twisted away and is almost completely gone (from what I can see), while the other smashed into the rocks hard enough to lodge itself in the cliffs forever. It's been there for over thirty years now, and I've been visiting it my whole life, and so have all my brothers, and both of my parents, my last trip I managed to carry a chunk of the hull up the cliff and take it all the way home with me, it's become a kind of niche bragging point to my friends and my family's friends who know about the wreck.

    I know it's not, the actual ship; the Eduard Bohlan (as you listed. And you spelled it differently, in the write-up) @04:31, but the ship you chose to depict, is OUR local WWl shipwreck; the SS 'Atlantus', which is just offshore of Cape May Point, here at the tippimost point, in South Jersey. The picture you're producing, was from a postcard around, the 1920's era. Most of that ship cannot be seen, even at low tide now. 46 years ago, during the major cold spell/snow if '77/78, my Dad & I, went to go see it. I walked out onto the ice, and out to the ship, which is 100 feet, offshore. I went inside, into a couple separate compartments, and grabbed a piece of the concrete. I will forever, remember that☺️!!!

    Definitely the USS Corry should be added to your list. Corry, DD 334, is/was a Clemson class 4 stack destroyer, one of several sold for scrap in 1930. While her guns, other valuable gear and most of her superstructure was removed the scrapping was stopped and her hulk was left stranded on a mud bank in the Napa River in California, USA where you can almost always walk up to her.
    A shame as her remains not preserved some years ago before serious deterioration set in as she is the closest thing to a "semi-intact" 4 piper left of the over 250 built and the many that served so many ways past their time in WWII.

    I reckon you could do a whole video dedicated to the shipwrecks of Trial Bay, on the mid-north coast of NSW. Named after the Trial, which was a brig that was shipwrecked there in the early 19th century. In 1972 a former Sydney showboat and two car ferries wrecked on Trial Beach after seeking shelter from a storm as they were being towed to Asia for scrapping. You don't always get to see photos of a wrecked showboat in Australia - and the wreck is still there, albiet not always visible. After heavy storms and rough seas, the wreck does reappear from the sandy grave.

She ran aground in 1906 in the thick fogs and strong currents so notorious to the region that it has been called “The Graveyard Of The Pacific”. There were no fatalities from the stranding, but she was stuck fast in the sand and left there. You can walk up the sand about 5 miles from a local state park right up to her rusted remains.

Today, they are in only 1.8 meters, or six feet, of water, and are accessible to swimmers and even visible to pedestrians. They were added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 26, 2003. Another ship, SS Louisiana, ran aground off Washington Island, Wisconsin and then burned and sank (without fatalities) in only three to 7.6 meters (ten to twenty-five feet) of water, where she remains. She was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 19, 1992.

    I live in Newfoundland where there are several accessible shipwrecks:
    HMS Calypso (1883) was a Royal Navy sailing corvette which was later converted to a training/barracks ship during WW1 and after that used for bulk salt storage. Beached, burned and abandoned in 1968.
    SS Empire Energy was formerly the Italian ship Grete and was seized at the start of WW2. Was ran aground when the convoy she was part of was attacked by a U-boat.
    SS Ethie which was one of Newfoundland's alphabet fleet. There's very little left of her now, she ran out of coal fighting a raging storm and was beached in 1919.
    SS Kyle was another (and probably the most famous) alphabet fleet vessel. After she was retired from the costal boat service she was used privately until she was damaged in heavy sea ice. While moored, she dragged her anchors in a storm and ran aground in 1967.
    SS Ahern Trader was a cargo ship that was lost in a storm in 1960. While unloading a cargo of hay, a storm blew up forcing the captain to move her away from the dock and anchor her offshore. Unfortunately her anchor chains parted and she was driven ashore in the gale.

    Another shipwreck in Greece you can visit, is on an island off Zante. Its a major tourist attraction now. The island has been renamed shipwreck island and there are so many tours where you can visit the beach and shipwreck. A local told me it was a cargo ship that was smuggling cigarrettes and got beached while being chased by the coast guard. No one wanted to claim it (although a load of locals made off with the cigarettes) and so it slowly rusted until someone started doing tours to the island.

    in my hometown of sheboygan, WI, there's a pretty rich history of maritime events, there's a very well preserved (for her age, that is) wreck set up downtown after it washed up, she's called the lottie cooper, sank in a storm and now you can walk around within the wreck and it's a wild feeling to visit her

    G'day, You could essentially do a series just on australia for wrecks you can visit easily be it warship or merchant.
    Like HMS/HMAS J7 there's also the HMVS Cerberus or the guboats HMCS Protector & HMQS Gayundah.
    Similar the SS Ayrfield or the two River class TBD's.
    These are my favourites but even many more merchant vessels can be walked too or just swam to.

    Could you make a small documentary about MV E Evangelia too? She still stands to this day on the beach of Black Sea from Romania. Surprisingly she was made by Harland and Wolff too, making it somewhat of a sister to Titanic.

    You should look into the wreck of the SS Kakapo is Cape Town. The cause was a navigation error around Cape Point. The story of the wreck was reportedly so embarresing, the captain refused to leave the ship for several years.

    Particularly interested in the J7, which I'd not heard of before. (I'm a Pommie, mate.) A couple of years ago some naval people discovered that the wrecks of two 'surviving' German schnellbooten - a kind of light, fast destroyer, left over from the Great War, were rotting away in the mudflats at the head of Southampton Water, GB. It seemed they'd ended by being used as mail and supply boats for the German fleet interned at Scapa Flow, and when redundant, simply dumped out of the way, and forgotten for the next century........

    The Maheno on Fraser Island in Qld is a popular attraction for 4wd owners.
    The ship was a ocean liner that plied a route on the east coast of Australia and to new Zealand.
    She served the ANZACS during the first world war as a hospital ship before ending her commercial life in 1935.
    Maheno broke free of her tow in a cyclone, on the way to Japan to be scraped, and stuck fast on Fraser Island.

    If you do a part two, the SS Palo Alto of Seacliff, California, is an interesting one. You can still see it and decades ago, you could even walk on the ship through the use of a pier.

  • @RosinaEmilyW

    For those in the UK, there’s a number of easily visitable wrecks which you can just walk up to.
    The river Dart has several which you can see quite easily.
    There’s also plenty of wrecks on the Severn River and its estuary, including the ferry which used to serve the same function as the two bridges.
    South Sheilds beach has the wreck of the Constance Ellen.
    All these are wrecks you can either walk right up to on the beach, with the exception of the Dart wrecks, some of which are more easily seen from the river cruise.
    Then there’s the wreck of the Mary Rose, which rests in a museum, and the many museum ships which no longer float but remain in good condition (S.S. Great Britain, HMS Victory, a submarine).

    There is an abandoned stamp sand dredge - Quincy Dredge #2 - on the shore of Torch Lake, off the Keweenaw Waterway in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. That dredge has been there since 1967. The road that goes from the north side of the Portage Lake Lift Bridge to the east runs right by the thing. Kids used to go on it and jump/dive off the dredge structure, though the last picture I saw it appeared a lot of that apparatus might be gone.
    It actually has a Wiki article if anyone is interested. A very well-known local landmark.

    Small error but not much you can do about it now, but on the map of Greece you've circled the wrong bay for the location of Gytheio (9:55), and therefore the Dimitros. Gytheio is situated in the same location but in the bay to the east of the one you've circled. Great video as always though!

    4:27 It’s an interesting coincidence that you have a pic of the SS Atlantus as one of your illustrations. This wreck is partially visible on the Delaware Bay near Cape May, NJ. What makes it special is that it was a ship made using concrete.

    The most amazing wreck in Angola is the N‘Gola. The 1962 built ex Blumenthal, originally built for the HAPAG. Ships like that simply don’t exist anymore and she seems to be sitting there for not that long, keeping in mind she was struck from register in 1994.

    Thnx. I have made the challenging walk into the remote isolated beach opposite Tullaberga Island, near Gabo Island and Mallacoota to see the SS Riverina remains rusty and resolute in the surf. A site of numerous wrecks including A vessel sunk by German U-Boat in 1915. The remote location means in adjacent sand hills you can see the remains of drays used by locals to strip the vessel in 1920s. Further North along the NSW South Coast the still standing family home of the Danish fishing dynasty “Christian’s Minde” built in 1890 and named for a son lost in a shipwreck, the house contains various bits and pieces scavenged from various Jervis Bay wrecks. Also of note because the Ellmoos are related to a survivor of a famous wreck - William Ward - Titanic steward - of Boat 9 - who lived close by and without doubt frequent visitor to Christian’s Minde.

    • @tomsear1
      @tomsear1 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Marsden & Dahl are often mentioned as Aussie Titanic survivors-& while I believe not a Skippie at time of sinking - William Ward goes remarkably un-mentioned in Australia- odd because of his vital testimony- E Deck Portside cabin on Scotland Road - I think is testimony is used the digital recreation- boat 9 being that if Guggenheim squeeze & he was on there with Haines who was vital in early stage of inspection where despite Haines's advising Wilde he heard air escaping, from beyond key bulkheads which was serious Wilde downplayed the report to Smith.

    • @tomsear1

      an interesting lifeboat as some men clambered on - ashamed - for example Benoît Picard in the lifeboat. Picard had a conversation with one of the seamen where he remarked, "I would rather be on the ship." The seaman laughed at him, and he said, "Do you not see we are sinking?" Benoît recalled, "I was rather excited, and I said, 'It is fortunate that the sea is nice, but perhaps in five minutes we will be turned over'."

    • @tomsear1
      @tomsear1 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Far South Coast footnote - off Green Cape lighthouse you can occasionally see the remains of a wreck - partly famous because Saint Mary Helen MacKillop’s mother perished in the loss; making an Eden church built then a kind of sacred site

    @Oceanliner Designs Hey mike, I'm a little surprised you didn't include the S.S. Speke wreck from Phillip Island VIC, I would have hoped since you in in Melbourne you would have seen it once or twice, if not highly recommend going for a look, it's an interesting story and although not to much of the ship (just the bow) is there, its very easily accessed as it is washed up on shore.
