From what I have found out, San Francisco, always wanted more "LAND" as in moving all the cemetery's. Because land means money. So in that they would beach the ships, intentionally put sand over them creating land and so on. There's a Starbucks near Montgomery and Clay that sits on top of a ship. They have it outlined on the space and sidewalk.
as a child I lived in the mission district in San Francisco and they would have these little houses in the back that they would keep their you know kitchen stuff and their household stuff but they didn't use you know they'd go back and forth but anyway I found some bottles of wine down there I'm going to tell you they were over 100 years old and they smelt so great I mean need the whole room smell like wine anyway but I'll tell you the wine that they have in San Francisco and it was uncorked and no cork bottles no not a lot but if you smell it's just beautiful
Some guy doing potholes by the beach in San Francisco was 8 feet down. The vacuum was full so he shut it off. When he pulled the vacuum hose out of the hole he took his flash light to look for the utilities. He saw something that caught his eye. So he then reached in with a shovel and it was a solid gold coin. He was a hardcore alcoholic but never sold the coin because he said he had nothing in life to give his 2 kids after he died. He wanted his kids to have it after he died of old age. Knowing if was of high value he took it to an expert who later told him it was estimated between $55,000 - $98,000. Unfortunately someone broke into his RV one day and stole it.
Why would any city with a bay (a very desirable attribute) want to scuttle a bunch of ships in it?? That seems instead like something that is done to an enemy during war time, to block up their bay. Like choking down an airport with a bunch of broken down dilapidated old planes. It doesn't really make sense to me.
@@coffeegoblin8952 You might buy that explanation, but not me. I have worked in construction, engineering, and land development for over 25 years and I can tell you unequivocally that sunken ships make very poor useable land to build on! I am guessing that the city of San Francisco would have known that as well. IF that was really the reason they did it, then it was an extremely poor decision (to put it kindly).

What an s.h.i.t that person was
In 2012 I broke into a rv and found all kinds of vintage clothes , collectibles but the main thing I got was this gold coin

Remnants of Tartaria
They abandoned ships because the incoming sailors went to find gold instead. How can you sail those ships without sailors? They just abandoned them.
I remember the bay use to come up to the edge of 101 going north at the big turn heading towards the airport in the 60s.
I love my city so much! We have wine in our dirt

Um, I mean this is all explained in the video...
That’s because you are stupid.
@@fishypictures So explain, Einstein. Why would anyone want to scuttle ships in their own bay?
@@jf8461 to make more land as they already said

How did this happen? Ships buried????
I know it's hard to listen to this guy, but listen to the video anyway, and you'll find out.
BFD.
