Shipwreck of the Peter Iredale The Peter Iredale shipwrecked on the Oregon Coast in 1906. No one was able to remove the boat, so it just stayed there. Over the last 101 years it has slowly deteriorated. You can still see a very large piece of it. You can walk right up to it at low tide, and even wade out to it if the tide isn't too high, but watch out because there is a drop off right next to the sides of the hull and you will get wetter than you planned.
