Old Wooden Shipwreck




Title:
Old Wooden Shipwreck

Description:
From http://www.algulfcoastvideo.com The unidentified wooden shipwreck was exposed again by the high surf of Hurricane Ike. We took video of it about 2 years ago. However much more of it is exposed this time. Some believe it could be the blockade runner Montecello lost in the Civil War. However in 2000 the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said it could be the schooner Rachel, which ran aground in 1933. Located about 5 miles from Fort Morgan in Gulf Shores Alabama. It burned to the waterline. Two or three miles to the west of this wreck is the wreck of the Ivanhoe. It was beached by the Confederates and later burned by Union soldiers. More information has come to us. See the info at: http://picasaweb.google.com/Kenneth.DeAngelo/SchoonerRachelPhotoBookComingEmailForInfo# Click on "View Ken's Gallery" and then Rachel
