Wreck

Wreck
This shipwreck remains as a silent warning to watch where you are going. This was taken in the Chilean Fjords. The crew took a wrong turn, and that was that. This location is so isolated, that it would cost too much to salvage the wreck. Time has turned it into a hulk of rust.

Great photo - and isn't the rust a glorious colour? Yes the mariners must be aware of the depth of the rivers before they go sailing down them.

Very impressive- these waters have quite a lot of shipwrecks... I have always wanted to see the Chilean fjords but never managed, the Navimag ferries never sailed at times I could combine with my Patagonian holidays.

Épave qui a du panache malgré sa rouille et sa décadence.
