1972 Aground Autumn Cargo Coaster Cornish Cove Dangerous Dollar Foam Lands Merchant Rocks Rocky Rugged Vessels Waves Wreck Wrecked
EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the raw beauty and unforgiving power of the Cornish coastline at Lands End, the once mighty cargo ship, Nefeli, lies wrecked at Dollar Cove in October 1972. The rugged cliffs and crashing waves serve as a haunting backdrop to this maritime tragedy. The Nefeli, a merchant vessel, was likely a coaster or small cargo ship, now aground and battered by the relentless autumnal sea. The once pristine hull is now a mere shadow of its former self, with foamy white waves crashing against its rocky edges. The waves, though beautiful in their own right, pose a constant threat to the vessel, their dangerous embrace threatening to claim the Nefeli completely. The coastline, with its jagged rocks and treacherous currents, is a constant reminder of the harsh realities of the maritime world. The Nefeli, a relic of a bygone era, stands as a testament to the power of nature and the unpredictability of the sea. This poignant image, captured in the 1970s, transports us back in time, inviting us to reflect on the past and the ever-changing tides of the Cornish coast.
