The wreck site of the PS Albion. In 1840 she was heading into Jack Sound when it is said that the helmsman altered course to avoid a rowing boat, striking Crab Rock in the process. The captain ordered the vessel turned to shore and made for the beach. All on board were saved as was the cargo. Alas the vessel was not so lucky and was a total loss. She eventualy broke up and all that's left today is this shaft, believed to be part of her steam engine. Not having a name the beach was thereafter known as Albion Sands. In the background is the gap between the mainland and Gateholm the other side of which is Marloes Sands, scene that day of filming for the up coming movie "Snow White and the Huntsman" Thanks toPeter (pds35) for the initial info and directions.
Halcyon Hall at the Bennett College property, circa 2011.....The hall was built in 1893 in the Queen Anne style. Now it is just being allowed to collapse.
The college was closed in 1977 when it could no longer survive as an exclusively women's school. Nearby Vassar almost suffered the same fate a number of years earlier but became coed and has since thrived.
It's amazing that nothing was ever done with this property in what is probably the most affluent New York area north of Westchester County.

Odyssey is off Mud Hole, resting on sand in 110 feet of water. The ship is massive, 300 feet from bow to stern, 50 feet wide and 85 feet tall. The size is also the most impressive thing about diving the Odyssey. Exploring the cargo area, along passageways the length of a football field, divers look tiny.
The base of this boat was sitting below 110 feet. This midsection where I am filming from is at 80 feet. The top of the mast is 50 feet.
The last diver in the video is Jerry.
This old Patrol Wagon doesn't look as if it's going anywhere. Although it does seem to be mounted onto a trailer, so who knows?
