I’m so happy that you enjoy my videos!

I remember going to the gift shop and later, after it was condemned, my brother and I snuck onto the ship and explored it. There was a night club on the upper level and day glo paintings on the walls. I never knew what happened to the ship after they moved it. Now I do though. Thnx!

Been going to CM area since the 70's. Never heard this story. Excellent.

No I never heard about this boat/ferry! Fascinating that they were able to build over the sunken ferry. Wow. Thanks for reporting on this!

Grew up in Cape May starting in 1986 spent every summer down there drank many of beers on that deck never did I know what was below great video thank you for sharing!

Wow! Pretty cool never heard that story! I did hear the story of the Train buried under Turtle Gut inlet in the Crest. Keep up the good work Joey .

after you posted this as I have been going to Cape May since the early 90's........I I went to this restaurant several times so far and FORGOT about the SHIP! We are going to Cape May in a couple weeks and I will definitely share your story about this sunken ship as this is one of our favorite spots for food and the views....always windy on the deck but LOVE IT. thanks so much for the history of this...and to your friend for sharing it with you!!!

FANTASTIC! I learn so much about our local history from your channel! I have been at the Harbor View so many times but never knew this! Thank you

Hey Joey, thanks for this interesting and informative video. Great job as always. Hope you and the family are well. Stay safe.

Great job with the research and information in this video. It was very interesting.

Unbelievable. Amazing video. Not only the ferry boat, but also the Atlantic (3 masted schooner). OMG what memories that are flooding back.

Your very interesting, informative and entertaining video on the bizarre circumstances surrounding the former ferryboat has gained you an appreciative subscriber. Thank you for your excellent, well presented and narrated video.

wow! I remember that boat from my childhood. I forgot all about it. We never knew what it was at the time. Great aerial shots.

What a painful death of the utica ferry. That is so sad to see her dying so slowly. 😢❤️ We will always remember her of her history and spirit.

Thought I recognized that building. My dad docked his boat at Mill Creek Marina just across the waterway. We would spend summer vacations sleeping on the boat and then take Ocean Drive to the Wildwoods.

Wildwood Video Archive no Joey I was a cell phone holdout and didn’t get one until 2012! We were seated for about 10 minutes before it happened. After the initial crack in the floor about 2-3 booths inside the main dining room to the left as you walk in, which sounded like a cooler full of ice being dumped over, a tearing/shredding sound, management decided it was ok to proceed with business as usual. Ten minutes later the crack turned into a crevasse. It happened inside and we were on the outside deck, when the crevasse formed someone ran out to the deck yelling “Run!” Someone on the deck said “Gun!”. I clearly heard run, not gun, and calmly hopped onto the dock but many people fled crazily thinking they heard gun.

I'm pretty sure you are combining the sunken racing sailboat with the ferry story

@WildwoodVideoArchive

You are referring to "the Atlantic." It was the fastest Schooner ever built and was owned by some of the richest people in America at one point. It still hold the title for the fastest Atlantic Ocean Crossing. Believe you me I am not combining the two ships/stories.
