I wonder how many Civil War era ships are amongst the wrecks?
These ships are resting just off the Outer Banks in the ‘Graveyard of the Atlantic’
It’s Labor Day weekend. You’re vacationing with your family and friends at the Outer Banks. The water is warm thanks to the Gulf Stream, and the waves are gentle. Cumulus clouds dot the sky to periodically relieve the heat. The OBX is a beach-goer’s paradise, but hidden just below those gentle waves is the “Graveyard of the Atlantic” — the final resting place for more than 5,000 sunken ships.https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...outer-banks-in-the-graveyard-of-the-atlantic/
