Suspected wreck of the legendary yacht INGOMAR off North Carolina

Footage of the shipwreck suspected to be the iconic schooner yacht INGOMAR, built in 1903 for Morton Plant by Nat Herreshoff. Skippered by the legendary Scottish yachtsman Charlie Barr, who won three America's Cup races, INGOMAR would go on to be one of the most successful American yachts after winning 17 of 19 races in 1904, including an epic race against Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany. The 127-foot-long vessel would be converted to a motor yacht in 1928 and was ultimately lost after grounding on Frying Pan Shoals off Cape Fear, North Carolina, in 1931.

I saw a website that indicated she's been recovered and restored? (I might be wrong)

[@aocfishman00]

No, there was a shipbuilder in Europe that used the original plans to build a recreation - it is not 100% finished and is looking for a buyer to complete
