County
 This Dutch built freighter, originally named Poinciana, was built in
1961. She was 227 feet long, had a 34 foot beam, and was powered by
an eight cylinder Werkspoor diesel. She gained notoriety after she
capsized and sank in the Miami River. The vessel was raised, towed
offshore and then sunk as an artificial reef on September 23, 1987.
She now sits on her port side in 112 feet of water.
