Remember when
 

Here are a few pictures of a ship washing ashore down cape I believe in May of 1984

another

Eldia
 

Hi Mike

Looks likes the Eldia which I think went ashore on Nauset Beach in late March / early April 1984. We were at the Cape in May and decided to walk down to the beached ship.

The size / distance perspective was deceiving it took us much longer than we expected to reach the ship.

Thanks for the memory jogger

Another shot of the Eldia

I think there is a picture in my parents box at home holding me when I was three in front of the boat.

Argo Merchant... Didn't she break in half?

Also the fuel barge hitting Brenton Reef in the summer of '89
The QE2 running aground at Sow & Pigs

About 30-35 years ago, there was a collision between a small coastal tanker, the Mystic Sun, and a freighter around Cleveland Ledge. The tanker sank.

when did the QE2 grounding happen?

August 1992

Welcome to N1TM first post. :kewl: Lots of ships were caught off Nauset. I went to the drydock to see the Q E when she was being repaired. Standing in the dock and looking up was unbelievable. They put a patch on the damaged area and I think she was repaired in Germany.:hee:

Buzzards Bay was a oil slick

1996 North Cape oil Spill in South Kingstown --- very sad day
