  • AMERICA STAR , despues Camberra , un barco que dio mucho juego y que se solto de un remolcador ruso frente a las costas de Fuerteventura, quedando encallado y posteriormente se partio en dos. los años y la herrumbre han hecho su trabajo del buque actualmente, apenas quedan unos pocos restos.

    The American Star is a classic example of nature over technology. Nature is powerful.

    I remember the ship well when it was AUSTRALIS with Chandris Lines sailing into Sydney, Australia. A sad end to a once happy ship.

    All wasn't lost. The locals of Fuerteventura removed everything from on board and gave them a new use. Parts of the ship live on.

    A fitting end for something that was built for the sea.

      I believe it was part of an art display in the late 90s. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were people living on the wreck.

      The ship was settled as a total loss and the locals just needed bits from the ship. I have a few rusted parts from the wreck.

    I like this ship an saw her wreck on Fuerteventura 3 times, a great experience.
    Unfortunately the people living on Fuerteventura were and are not very clever and business-minded, when they plundered the wreck. And still not today.
    So many valuable items had been taken, including remaining art and furniture, masses went into the rubbish later, and expected thousands of items are still hidden on Fuerteventura, but never sold on modern platforms like eBay. It seems the people on Fuerteventura still doesn't know, that almost EVERYTHING from the famous ship can be sold as reminder pieces, and some items like brass portholes and so on could be sold for quite much money. Perhaps somebody should give them a hint. 😊

      @torsten1125 ปีที่แล้ว

      ALMOST all is gone, but not everything. In the autumn of 2021, there were still some very few remaining parts of the wreck above the water line. Of course to see that, it was (is) necessary to visit the beach at minimum ebb tide.
      It might be boring for people which haven't seen the wreck in former years, but my family and me were happy to see that not everything was gone in autumn of 2021. Therefore I have also corrected the wrong information on Wikipedia, German language version.

      Serpentine Now that I would like to see, but apparently it is very dangerous to just swim there due to very strong rip currents on the west coast of Fuerteventura.
