Does anyone know what ship is wrecked off Logan Airport. It can clearly be seen on Google Earth. Here are the Coordinants.

Thank you for the coordinates.  I observed this wreck while taking off in a commercial jet about 5 years ago.  She has three hatches that can be clearly seen.  It was low tide and the sun was in a perfect position.  Could not tell if it was a large schooner or a barque.  She appeared to have been stripped of all useful equipment and scuttled.

Many old sailing vessels were used as fill during the building of Logan Airport.  Perhaps this is one of them.  However she is close to, but not part of the filled land of the airport.
