In August 1944, a US liberty ship arrived in the Thames Estuary. a vessel that would plague Sheerness for the next 76 years. After having dropped its anchor in the Nore anchorage, she tried to ride out a Northerly gale, but dragged and grounded on the Sheerness Middle Sand. 

Today, this infamous wreck remains part loaded with over 1500 tonnes of her explosive wartime cargo onboard. Over the years she has remained visible to every ship that passes her, but that is soon to change. In 2022, it is expected that this wartime disaster will have its masts cut down.

Will you be one of the last to see her up close and still breaking the surface?
