Cement Ship in California

The S. S. Palo Alto is an old cement ship lodged at the end of Seacliff State Beach fishing pier in Aptos, California. The ship was built in 1919, sank in 1932, and has an interesting history which unfortunately I have pretty much forgotten. I took a lot of photos which I apparently promptly deleted. This photo is the only one that survived. Thanks to Diane.
