About This Shipwreck

Namecki is a Ferris-type wooden ship. It is one of many that make up the Ghost Fleet in Mallows Bay. Ferris-type ships get their names from Theodore E. Ferris, a senior architect for the United States Shipping Board (USSB). Each Ferris-type ship measured about the same, 282 feet long and weighing 3,500 tons. Namecki was the first of four of these vessel types built at the Tampa Dock Company. This vessel has been in its present location since 1929.
