The wonder and enjoyment of these photos comes from imagining (and sometimes researching) the vibrant history of these vessels, which these photos capture so eloquently, so perfectly, I can picture myself standing on their decks when they sailed.

She looks kinda like she ends abruptly further aft. Was she broken in two?

this is definitely not the USS Dispatch, the bow is the wrong style. It doesn't look like a pleasure yacht either. Very nice shot. I wish I knew what it was a shot of.....

what's the length/breadth of this ship? It bears a vague family resemblance to WW2 liberty ships.

Astounding.

I can almost picture it in its prime. Stunning shot.

There's a small fishing boat/pleasure boat graveyard similar to this in Lake Eufaula where I sometimes go to explore old cabin cruisers. They're in much better condition than these, but I wouldn't mind checking out some of these boats' interiors either.

Where's the nameplate? I've never seen it.

I love shipwrecks. I absolutely must visit this place someday. What's the average water depth around there? I might try some underwater exploration.

I'd hate to try to salvage this dead lady o'the sea. Tetanus shot anyone?
