Gallant Lady shipwreck, Bimini, Bahamas

The once majestic Gallant Lady now reduced to a rusted hulk leans against a rocky shore on the southern tip of North Bimini in the Bahamas.

The freighter which sailed out of Belize City was smashed up on shore in a bad storm. In the years to follow the salty waves have slowly destroyed the abandoned ship, eating away at it until merely a skeleton remains.

Ironically the public cemetery overlooks the ghostly wreckage.

You probably noticed that the port and starboard cage lamps on the wheelhouse are missing. That's 'cause they're on a shipwreck display in my den! Last brass from the old lady.
