The thing that is great about this is the U.S.S. Constitution sinks a pirate ship that in the real world was called the S.N. Castle. It was built in 1886, and you can read more about it in the link I will provide below. What they did was set it on fire, and you see it sink below the water in the movie. The remains are still out there, and if you know how to scuba dive you can see them. My picture was where it was sunk which is probably just beyond those two boats in the middle, and the movie picture is the ship as it starts to take some major damage.

I’m going to let this blog wrap up this part of my day at Two Harbors. I did go on to walk to the other side of Catalina Harbor and then went on to hike the area I mentioned in the first blog. At some point I will probably show something from that and eventually my time last year at Avalon on a different day which was a lot of fun too.
