    Nice, been waiting for another video, so happy to see this one!! I have always wondered what those old structures were. I had always assumed that they were docks, but wondered why some were in the middle of the water and not attached to anything. I had no idea that they were mainly shipwrecks! I can't wait to see what you do next!!

    Having grown up in Fall River, MA, I have been very interested in the local history here. I just learned from this video about the remains of the steamer Mount Hope still in existence. Almost every book written about the Fall River Line mentions the Mount Hope, and how much it was loved by the locals. Thank you for teaching me something new. 😊

      I remember year ago, listening to BZ as they gave there traffic reports of the Mount Hope Bridge, one time on my way back from the casino, I got to a detour, ended up going over that bridge, well there was an accident in front of us, I sat on its peak for some time. Two narrow lanes , very high and steep, so the ships could past under. Freaky!

    Great video! Loved it and subbed! One small insignificant point: these aren’t shipwrecks. They didn’t run aground and wreck themselves on a foggy night when the captain & mate were both drunk. In maritime parlance they’re called derelicts because they were abandoned to rot.

    I live near the big gas tank by the freeway in Dorchester. All through the harbor and into the Neponset river is full of rotting piles sticking up through the water. I don't think anybody around here now remembers what it used to be. Not too far from Providence. Probably no shipwrecks though.
