You'd be amazed at the stuff that appears and disappears during the Seasons. The HMS Somerset still resides at Peaked Hill. Paul Revere rowed past that ship before his "midnight ride". It was run aground by Truro boys shanghied in Boston during the War of 1812. "You're in the Royal Navy now boys", "The hell we are". The Brits were marched back to Boston at pitchfork point by the Truro hayshakers.
Last season I saw a ship's timber fitted with wooden pegs and bronze spikes. No steel was in it. I thought it was an odd combination of technologies, went back for it but it was gone.
The Vikings visited the outer Cape, I'm waiting for a new hat.
