Ghost Ship Graveyard of the Potomac

Americas Now

“Americas Now” recently made a nautical excursion to a little-known locale outside of Washington, DC. Mallows Bay is on the Maryland side of the Potomac River, about 30 miles south of the U.S. capital. Hundreds of ships have ended up abandoned there since the early 20th century.

Navigating the waters requires caution as debris and twisted metal from these ships liter the location
