Old Sailor Recalls Pearl-Laden Coral Ship in Sargasso Sea
J F Haynes, a former sailor of 63 years, recounts a voyage aboard the clipper Donald McKra from Boston. In a hurricane they enter the Sargasso Sea and discover a 100-year-old crystal ship hidden among kelp, its deck guarded by giant octopuses and pearls spilling from a broken cupboard. The crew flees as the strange vessel sinks after an underground disturbance, leaving Haynes wary of the Sargasso Sea.
