On this day in 1908 it was recorded in the log from the U.S. Life-Saving Service Station Gull Shoal that a man who came to retrieve the body of the captain from the wrecked schooner Leonora stayed at the station over night. The Leonora was bound from Long Point, Maine to Charleston, South Carolina with a load of fish scrap when it encountered a horrendous storm off Cape Hatteras. Winds of 75 mph pushed the schooner onto Diamond Shoals where it was beat to pieces within 30 minutes. The following was printed in The Republican Journal out of Belfast, Maine on January 30, 1908. ... See MoreSee Less

Fish Friday!
This little cold snap today might have you thinking about snow, but since we more than likely won't see any of that we can at least think about the snowy grouper! Named for the distinct white spots on the young fish that may resemble big solid snowflakes, this grouper prefers to be nowhere near the cold stuff. They typically inhabit waters of 300 to 420 ft deep and 60 to 84 degrees in temperature, this puts them about 50 miles off our coast for optimal habitat. Snowy grouper can live about 17 years and reach 70 pounds. They may dine on snappers, scad, porgies and various crustaceans. ... See MoreSee Less

On this day in 1926 the schooner Morris and Cliff ran aground about 5 miles south of Swansboro about 1/4 mile from Brown's Inlet. The schooner was travelling from Portsmouth, New Hampshire to Miami, Florida with a cargo of lumber. The captain and crew abandoned the ship and were later taken to Norfolk, Virginia while the vessel became a complete loss. The Morris and Cliff sailed the eastern seaboard and often hailed at the port of Wilmington, North Carolina. It commonly carried lumber, railroad ties and sometimes lime for the cement industry. The New Britain Daily Herald of Connecticut reported on June 24, 1925 that the Morris and Cliff had been seized off of Watch Hill, Rhode Island for carrying a different type of cargo, $230,000 worth of liquor. This was the era of prohibition. It is not known if the ship was sold at auction or relinquished to it's 'unsuspecting' owner and put back into service. ... See MoreSee Less

On this day in 1909 the 3,898 ton British steamer Teesbridge, bound from Marseilles France to Hampton Roads, Virginia, grounded 2.5 mi N of the U.S. Life-Saving Station Whaleshead (formerly known as Station Jones Hill and later re-named Currituck Beach). Crews from that station and Currituck Inlet (later re-named Pennys Hill) responded but the captain of the ship declined aid. He decided to wait out the tide for deeper water to float the vessel. The following appeared in The Wilmington Morning Star on January 15, 1909. ... See MoreSee Less
