A group of mercenaries headed to fight in the Haitian revolution to overthrow Francois 'Papa Doc' Duvalier but they made it no further than this spot. Their 70-foot boat sunk in a storm in 1968. As recently as ten years ago, ammunition clips could still be found among the scattered coral heads. Two engine blocks and assorted sections of the old shrimper are still visible.
