Phantom Shrimp Boat

This shrimp boat was found unoccupied wandering the Gulf. No one ever claimed it. It sits as a monument to the entrance of the park. I have been in the area 22 years and it was here way before I came to town. Cannot tour it , but can get up close and take pics. There is a plaque stating the exact circumstances of finding the boat... [ellen leach, 12/24/2001]
