  • Off the coast of New Jersey, in the Delaware river, sits 18 abandoned ships.
    These ships have been sitting in water since World War 1, making them all over 100 years old.
    Come with me as we explore these abandoned ships.

    Well done Joey. Loved how you included the detailed history in the beginning to set the stage. Then moved into the exploration of the near-shore ship. Then saved the BEST part for the end. Goose bumps seeing the back to back ships creating the breakwater for the shore line along with the perfect background music to provide gravity to the scenes. Wow.

    I knew those ships were there because I worked at those plants, but I never knew they were sunk in place over 100 years ago. I always thought they were put there when they built the plants. But it’s the other way around, looks like they built the plants there because there was already a ship breakwater. Thanks for the lesson.

    Hey hi youre standing near my house. Elsinboro. One of these is right around the corner. There are maps available that say visible shipwreck. Very interesting, I love NJ's history with the sea, lighthouses and vessels. There may be some oyster boats out there. Oystering was a massive economic boost long ago. Artificial island. Hope creek 1 and 2.
