Every bit as haunting as I remember them from the deck of a 1950s tanker that I'm sure has long since gone to its own boneyard. There is something about a broken boat that speaks to me. I have a tendency to get carried away trying to imagine the lives of the people who manned these vessels; it was a far different marchant marine 50 or 60 years ago... but at least we had a merchant marine (at least the USA did) then. Thanks for the links.
