Here is the third in a series of photos taken by me from my Cessna 172 of the shipwrecks of Rawley Point.  There are 12 identified and 10 unidentified shipwrecks off Rawley Point. This one appears to be a small sailing vessel. It is pointed towards the shore, and is located near the mouth of Molash Creek on the south side of the Point Beach State Forest, south of the Point. If anyone knows which shipwreck this is, please let us know.
