Ghost Ships

Growing up, my interests surrounded two things: Ghosts and the sea. The stories of the Flying Dutchman and Blackbeard were favorite bedtime tales, and I hoped day and night that I would be lucky enough to encounter one of the misty ship images. I have compiled some stories surrounding some well known ghost ships, and some of the lesser known ones. Have a ghost ship story? Then send us a line and tell us your tale.
