My hats off to the person who took all of these pictures. You are doing something I wish I could do. I used to live near Galveston, TX & have a 19-foot power boat, but there are no real wrecks around Galveston. Just a couple of masts sticking up out of the water, old trawlers & such. Super super cool.

The Bow

Careful! Carl The Anal Photographer is probably screaming/crying/tearing his last 3 hairs out/calling his congressman because you boarded this vessel to take a killer picture. He is concerned for your well being.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!

People who think they can take better pictures should go do it. We are not the least inteterested in your condescending input about what this guy could/should have done different.

Hey, Carl The Anal Photographer: we are all grown up & don't need you to mommy us on what is safe & unsafe. These pictures are completely AWESOME. I'll bet Carl The Anal Photographer is going to go on some "holier than thou" crusade to stop people from exploring these wrecks. Better call your congressman because someone is actually enjoying their life!!!

Carl The Anal Photographer should go bother somebody else with all his condescending jabber. 99% of most people hate those kind of people. Go take pictures at K-mart.

Side Deck

Come on in, the water is fine. Just step inside & fall into the engine room.

Oh. The name IS readable on the starboard bow.

You can almost make out the ship's name on the starboard bow, just below the railing.

Sometimes a flagstaff is maintained on wrecks for lot identification.

Slowly Sinking

J. Shultz

This vessel is done sinking in the water. Now it's sinking into the mud.

Sinking

Definitely a huge boiler under the main structure. Wonder if the huge steam piston engine is still down there somewhere?

Most likely no one died when this sunk. It was retired from service & got parked here. Years of neglect & an occasional storm caused the lower decks to slowly fill & the vessel sunk.

Ferry Entrance

The whining sound of her diesels was caused by very big turbo chargers.
