The Tragedy of the Schooner, John K. Shaw In-Person

A maritime tragedy etched in the annals of New Jersey's coastal history, the sinking of the John K. Shaw stands as a haunting maritime hit-and-run. The 3-masted schooner was crafted in local shipyards and tragically lost mere miles from her birthplace near Long Branch. Her story unfolds through the expert lens of Dan Lieb—a veteran maritime diver and historian with over three decades of underwater exploration and shipwreck cartography along the region's treacherous shores.
