Graveyard of Ships 2010 Taking my history-buff friend to the Staten Island Graveyard of Ships, formally (if less romantically) known as Witte Marine Scrap. The bonus to getting Will there is that suddenly a number of these anonymous, rusting hulks suddenly have names & histories as Will & his well-informed readers have started finding & sharing information about them. I thank them for their collective knowledge and have quoted many of those descriptions here. Visit www.tugster.wordpress.com for more in-depth information, including links to websites giving histories & in some cases photos of the ships in their heydays.
