Does anyone else feel that, after her lengthy service of transporting vehicles, she should have had a few cars on board and strapped into place to keep her feeling useful in her afterlife?

Took the Twin Capes many times over the years..while living in southern Delaware and again on vacation. I remember in '77 when they closed down the ferry because of the ice floes coming down the Delaware. For those asking WHY THEY DID THIS and a million other questions, scroll through the comments before asking questions that make you look dumb.

[@TomIannucci22]

I rode every ferry on this fleet on my lifetime, the 2 converted big ones imcluded. My first ferry ride was on the Cape May. I last rode Twin Capes in 2010.

[@JohnThomas-lq5qp]

Side note: just watched a nature show and New York sank 500 old subway cars to create reefs but they were made from inferior steel that caused the walls to quickly collapse leaving a junk pile of rusted useless steel. Sure this ferry will provideca great reef for fisjing & scuba diving. Thanks Joey for all the great vidios.

I never rode on this ship (I rarely get to Cape May), but for some reason I feel sad watching it go down. I guess thinking of all of the people who have traveled on her over the years. I guess now she will become a new home to sea life.

This feels like a funeral. Second shop that I have been on that sank. (First was the Queen of the North in Northern BC) What I had been told at the time: Neither the Cape May nor Twin Capes had greater car capacity (same original car deck). But required more staff to ooperatre becauyse of the additional bar etc. So costed more to run but didn't bring more passengers. Also, it was top heavy and harder to manoeuver in rough windy weather. (and this might explain how it sank). CMLF had sold off the Cape May (I think it was turned into a barge or some other unglorified use). But couldn't find a buyer for the Twin Capes. But still sad to see this go that way. I know I was on it in 2010 and 2012. And likely as a kid when my parents brought us down to Bethany Beach. (but back then, it woudln't have had the extended upper decks.)_

I'll never understand why they chose to bury her, not the Delaware or Cape Henlopen. I know they're cheaper to maintain but still... she was the best one. : '(

[@dlobes3285]

In 1977...I was on a 64' old Wooden fishing boat . We hit a Mooring Rope in The Kill Van Kull , Newark Nj. next to all the WW II scrap Navy ships. It pulled the bottom hull planks out from our boat. We were sinking. The owner of the boat Captain Bob had dove under the water and cut the rope with a Hacksaw. It took a long time to do it. We stayed afloat by keeping the throttle high and stayed moving so the water wouldn't come inside. The bildge pump worked while he cut the rope and it also just kept up enough to keep from sinking.. I will never forget that. I was scared to death about if we had to jump overboard into the 2nd Most polluted waterway in the world at the time. The Nile River was the # 1 most polluted water in the world. Talk about a "sinking feeling " in your stomach. Other than that, we had a wonderful time on the trip from Hackensack Nj Seaplane Base on the Hackensack River to the Atlantic Ocean just on the outer side of the Varronarrows Bridge near the Atlantic Highlands Nj and Staten Island NY

My Mom and Dad live right there in North Cape May. We take the Ferry every time we're down there just for the ride. How many torpedo's did it take to sink her?.😉

[@nickelvan]

I took one of the ferry boats from Cape May to Lewes back in 1991 on vacation. Not sure if it was this one? Looks like it. It was pretty cool, first and only time I have taken a car on a ferry. We don't have many of these in the Midwest. Sad to see it go!

[@michaelcraig9449]

We got ferries in the midwest, to go across the Miss and MO rivers.. but it only takes a few minutes, not much of a ride..

[@gjmob]

That was a right cock up. In Australia, if a vessel even lands on its side on the bottom the company that scuttled it gets fined.

[@josephchristiansen1803]

What I don’t understand is why do we sink ships when we retire them don’t the ocean have enough sunken ships plus u can scrape it and reuse the mettle

[@keithcurtis6671]

They sink them to create artificial reefs for the marine life to use as habitat. The ship breakers who would recycle old ships are all in India and Pakistan and the cost to tow there is more than the value of the metal.

[@frglee]

A lot of these shallow wrecks are used to provide dive sites for recreational sports divers brought here by local dive charter boats. They also encourage marine life. A win-win for the local tourist economy and and a great man made reef for sea life and fisheries.

[@WALTERBROADDUS]

Joseph Christiansen The scrap steel market is low right now. The USN has to near give away ships.

[@kayb1556]

Did you intentionally sink it???? I'm so confused. Couldn't the boat be scrapped for cash?? Did you hit something in the water and put a hole in it which caused it to sink?

It's ironic. On one side we're importing steel from the Chinese putting native steel companies out of business along with coal and iron mining and on the other side we're dumping a few thousand tons of it in the ocean as if we have nothing better to do with it. Well done LOL

[@daveroche6522]

Good point but isn't the objective of such sinkings to allow nature form an artificial reef around/on the wreck on the sea floor, thus somewhat revitalising the ecosystem? Once it's done properly, of course....

thomas bock it’s not the newest it was the oldest and at risk of sinking so they had to retire it

[@TheBeachedone]

Not after the expensive refit it had 20 years ago, they have moth balled and neglected it for a couple of years!

[@savethebigu]

26 million dollar refit, only to be sold to be sunk as a reef. Same thing with the Cape May. The spent all that money to make them little cruise ships, then they were too expensive to run. Crazy.

[@rickbailey7450]

Jeff Henry: Ships like that need pretty expensive refits every couple of years. The older they get, the more costly the refit. Eventually it becomes financially unfeasible.

[@savethebigu]

Rick Bailey That’s true, but when she was mothballed in 2010, they were trying to sell her. After having no luck, they wrote her off as surplus. So she sat at the Cape May terminal until they finally made this decision last year.
