Salty Dawgs Lecture Series: Misidentified, Unidentified, and Undiscovered Wrecks of the Outer Banks

The Graveyard of the Atlantic off the shores of the Outer Banks is home to hundreds of ships that have found a final resting place in this tumultuous stretch of coastline. During this presentation, divers, history buffs, and everyday curious visitors will learn a treasure trove of info on the famous and hidden gem ships that are found just miles away from the Hatteras Island seashore.

This afternoon presentation is part of the seasonal Salty Dawgs Lecture Series, and it provides an inside look at the misidentified, unidentified, and still undiscovered wrecks that are found off of the Outer Banks. Host and speaker Marc Corbett will share his knowledge from years as an avid shipwreck diver, a researcher, and an underwater photographer – talents he is putting to use in an upcoming book about local and regional shipwrecks. With a love of both history and diving, attendees will be enthralled by the mysterious vessels that are found well below the surface, and will learn a world of information about what makes this region so special in the history books. Free and open to the public, this event that is appropriately held at the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum is sure to be an unforgettable journey into the depths of the Outer Banks.
