THE WRECK OF THE CHELSEA - Access: Boat
The Chelsea was a coastal oil tanker which sank in the late 1950s. The shipwreck is noted on several National Ocean Survey (NOS) charts which show the Cape Ann area. Exact location of the wreck will require reference to one or more of the aforementioned charts. The Chelsea sits on a rocky plateau in 40 to 50 feet of water approximately 1/2 mile NNE of the northeast tip of Thacher Island . The wreck is somewhat compressed and considerably broken up.
