I can see the outboard, low tide. The shrimp boat either lost power and drifted or was tossed in a storm. The NAVY ship, I don't get.

The Navy ship almost looks like it's sitting in a park setting. Maybe it's a display boat not one gone adrift.

outboard looks like it dragged a mooring.

or sometimes even sailboats....not really, but we saw this a few years ago. keels resting on the bottom and tide is still dropping for a few more hours. right after we took this the boat tumbled to one side

That was a stolen boat and those that stole it ran it hard a ground. I beleive they were caught...Mark

Avoid those pesky ferry boats, too.

They say there are 3 types of boaters. Those that have grounded, those that will eventually ground & liars...

Don't have any pics of my land yacht at the moment, but there's always a chance I could get some on my next trip.

These guys must have been going full blast when they hit the semi submerged island. The water behind the boat is no more than shin deep for at least 40 yards. And this is at high tide.
