Some other great sights around the Falklands were those of the many ship wreaks. This ship is called the The Lady Elizabeth. The story is that she was deemed not sea worthy by the harbour master after receiving damage out at sea. The ship was moored in the harbour and on one rough night broke her moorings and ended up stuck on the sand bank where she remains to this day. Rumour has it that she was sea worthy all along but happened to be carrying a shipment of hardwood and this cargo seemed valuable to the local residents.
