Title: Abandoned Ship - Arctic Ocean
Post by: 64Pacific on April 14, 2021, 11:42:31 PM

Hello everyone,

I was looking around on Google Earth after doing a bit of research on the Canmar (Canadian Marine Drilling) / Dome Petroleum fleet in the Beaufort Sea which lead me to looking along the Alaskan, Yukon and NWT coastlines. I came across this ship, and am very curious what it may be - I can't find anything online...

This link should open up in the aforementioned mapping program with the ship visible...
