Sunken Boats on Moreton Island in Queensland, Australia
Sunken boats are often the result of an encounter with a natural or man-made disaster. But the sunken boats on Moreton Islands were on purpose to create a safe harbor for smaller boats in Queensland, Australia. These former boats were once used as barges and steam dredges, some of whom date back all the way to 1963. The sunken boats were placed there at the request of small boat owners.
