Description
A morning view of the Wreck of the SS Atlantus, from Sunset Beach in Cape May, New Jersey. Birds are squatting on the 106 year old vessel. Built in 1918 just after WWI, it was one of the few experimental concrete ships put into service. It was used to transport troops back home from Europe and later to move coal into New England. In 1926, the ship broke loose of her moorings during a storm and ran aground off of Sunset Beach, where it slowly falls apart into the Atlantic Ocean to this day.
