‘Ghost ship’ washes ashore after surviving hurricane

An abandoned vessel dubbed a ghost ship for its eerie appearance washed ashore weeks after surviving a hurricane.

Pensacola Beach residents were shocked to see a 45-foot sailboat with ripped sails become beached in Florida’s Panhandle on the evening of June 18.

‘We called it the “ghost ship.” It quickly became known as the “ghost ship” across Pensacola beach,’ meteorologist and storm chaser Allie Garrett told NBC News.
