The scenarios just suggest themselves. It could be an oil tanker that people, all Mad Max like, are fighting over because there is still some fuel in it. Perhaps it was a Nazi ship transporting the spear of destiny to wherever in the past age of man.

Oh, and here's a Lita Ford video just because:

Probably, there can't be that many of them out there.

Cacique Caribe23 Sep 2007 9:56 p.m. PST

The Namibia Skeleton Coast has loads of them. Plus there are always the ones around the Aral Sea:

Mrs G navigating could have resulted into something like that.

Particularly after a giant asteroid hit and subsequent tsunamis!

Wow that is strange!
Dont show that to Algore!

At what point do we stop calling the Aral Sea a sea?

OldGrenadier at work24 Sep 2007 5:25 a.m. PST

Who is Algore, a lurker here?

When it becomes the Aral Pond?

Some guys just can't stand to stop and ask directions, and look what happens…

Reminds me of the time I let my wife try to deck the rental canal boat, whereby she almost killed my Mother-in-Law! In retrospect, perhaps I was a bit hasty in taking the wheel!

I'm too lazy to read all of these links, can't someone just tell me the story?

Cool pic Pictors and by a strange coincidence I bought the Lita Ford album that "Kiss Me Deadly" is on yesterday off of Ebay!!!

Wierd.

"The Eduard Bohlen was a ship that ran aground off the coast of Namibia's Skeleton Coast on September 5, 1909, in a thick fog. Currently the wreck lies in the sand a distance from the shoreline."

StarfuryXL524 Sep 2007 2:02 p.m. PST

Just like in the movie "Sahara."

StarfuryXL524 Sep 2007 2:02 p.m. PST

Well, sort of like, at least.

pphalen24 Sep 2007 2:04 p.m. PST

I've "run aground" in my maritime career, but THAT'S A LOT OF FREAKING GROUND!

pphalen24 Sep 2007 2:04 p.m. PST

Or some really, really amazing High Tide!
