Shipwrecks on Dog Island, FL unearthed by Hurricane Michael

It seems as if Hurricane Michael left behind an apology gift for Florida’s Forgotten Coast. Hurricane Michael’s storm surge dredged up a handful of 19th Century ships that washed ashore Dog Island, Florida during the 1899 Carrabelle Hurricane. These old wooden ships now sit in plain view near the west end of Dog Island, which is located just 3.5 miles offshore from Carrabelle, Florida. The Carrabelle History Museum hosted this event on January 26, 2019 as part of its series of historical talks sponsored by Franklin County Tourist Development Council. This talk focuses on the newly-exposed shipwrecks uncovered after Hurricane Michael, their possible identification and the history of these shipwrecks. https://www.floridasforgottencoast.co...
