shipwreck, interesting place
The Bayer was launched in 1864 as a sailing ship. In 1885 she was heavily damaged after striking an iceberg. The vessel was later transferred to South Georgia. In 1911 she broke free of her moorings and ran aground to the south. She still sits remarkably intact along the shore.
