I have been trying to find a picture I took in 1987 of a wreck on a very remote atoll in the Pacific. Last cruise, we were headed home from the PI, pretty much flying to keep quals, etc., perfect day, easy seas.

But there it was, maybe a 150 foot fishing boat stuck half-way on the atoll...with a ladder over the brow, how the crew got off.

It had been there years, but it still struck me, what was the back story? Rust had peeled the name of the ship off the stern and there were no other markings.

Again, 1987: I have tried to find it over the years to no avail.

The sea, and I have a bunch of time on her with steam ships and gas turbine powered Greyhounds, is remarkable...I can't wrap my head around SAILING it.

Thanks for the thread!
