Description

Fishing vessels East Hampton and Wicomico aground as derelicts up river from the Edwards Plant. Stern of East Hampton on right, Wicomico on left. They were broken up with a floating crane and removed about 1988. Wendell Haynie spearheaded the effort to get the State and Federal Governments to remove the derelict vessels as part of the effort to clean up Cockrells Creek, which helped in the clean up of the Chesapeake Bay.
