Thanks Jerry. This brought back fond memories of a similar vessel on the beach of Guam during my Navy days in 1952. Dale

Great shot, Jerry and a perfect title! I like the color version better but then I am just not a B&W person ;-)) Love the orangey color on the rocks to complement the hull of the ship. Nicely done.

Very nice. Sad yet romantic at the same time.

Jerry, this reminds me of a pirate's hull. An awesome photo. The Hand of Time sure took its toll on this lovely old vessel.
