The remains of a ship, not far from the shore. Locked in a watery grave, hidden in the sand awaiting winter storms. When the storms come, the sea scours away the sand, sometimes revealing what's left of a skeleton timber frame of a ship. Unburied and re-buried over the years, being named from a Spanish galleon to a Viking longboat. Both being wrong, but no one knows that. The only correct answer has been from children who dream and believe in the pirate myths.

The only thing these people know is that she was on a voyage to land near. She met her long awaited end in these waters, where she was 'struck aft' while at anchor and pushed broadside onto the well-known beach in a storm. She came to rest, along with the crew of the ship - much as we see the remains here today. Some of the bodies of the crew were discovered a couple hundred years after their awful encounter, some still laying in the deep depths of the sand around the wooden skeleton waiting to be found and brought to the same museum as their 'brothers'.

A portal to the past, a way of knowing the real truth. The ship is a secret portal, no one knows about. The only way of it working is if one were to step in the middle of the ship. A secret gem hidden within the unwanted burial. People have gone there, but never came back. Either died, or stuck there for eternity. No one will know the true story of the ship without dying. Once you go into the past, there is no way out... or so it seems.

Look closely... If conditions are right, you might see the remains of a ship. Is it this specific ship or another caught on this death trap coastline.


Would you take the chance and go back to see the history of the wreck? Or would you stay and live with never knowing?
