The S.S. Selma, an oil tanker built in 1919 when the world's steel was in short supply, served about a year when she hit a jetty off the Florida coast. The owners brought the ship to Galveston, but no one in Galveston knew how to repair concrete ships. The Selma was stripped and skuttled in the shallow water near Pelican Island. Almost 90 years later I got a close up look see.
