The trip to the long lost Chilean Ship Part I

A long, long time ago, a hurricane brought to the northern beaches of Santa Maria Island in Sinaloa a big ship, somehow it avoided all the nearby sandbars and landed in a truly remote spot in the Island. Back then, a trip was planned and we arrived by boat to the ship around 1978-1979.

Since then, I see the ship by airplane or on Google maps on occasion, even tried to put together a group to go there last year without success.

So, last week my son and I decided to repeat the 30 year old trip, but this time the hard way. (Stealing somebody else words, by the road less taken.)


A general area map, the ship lays on the northern part of the island.
