Wreckage of old sailing ship reappears on beach near Fort Morgan, Ala. - WHNT: "GULF SHORES, Ala. (AP) — The wreckage of an old sailing ship has surfaced again on the Baldwin County coast, and a spokesman for Fort Morgan says it's most likely the three-masted schooner Rachel.
The ship ran aground in the early 1900s, and its most recent reappearance was on the beach six miles east of Fort Morgan after Tropical Storm Ida struck two weeks ago. Mike Bailey, Fort Morgan's events coordinator, says the Rachel was 155 feet long and was one of the largest Biloxi schooners built."
