Explorers go to boat graveyard full of rusty parts and stumble across a seven-figure superyacht

A content creator known for exploring abandoned places in and around the Greater Toronto Area of Canada stumbled across a seven-figure superyacht in a boat graveyard full of rusty ships and parts.

The creepy lot has allegedly faced legal issues due to environmental contamination.

When its owner died in 2014 it was forced to close.

Navigating the decaying vessels, this urban explorer discovered something he certainly hadn’t anticipated.

The boat graveyard

“This has to be our coolest find yet,” the Uncharted Travel team enthused.

While he compared the now-defunct shipyard to the story of The Lorax.

The scrapyard started as a small repair shop and scrapyard that slowly expanded.

However, the rust from the decaying vessels eventually began to contaminate the surrounding soil until the drinking water became contaminated and people moved away.

When the owner died, the yard was bought by the city but deemed too tainted to build on and it lay there abandoned.

In similar news in the US, this woman stumbled upon an abandoned mall’s eerie parking lot full of hundreds of Teslas in Missouri.

Plus there was an abandoned motorcycle haul of 12 bikes rescued from Florida woods – however their condition meant that recovery was trickier than anticipated.

The seven-figure superyacht

As the explorers navigated the shipyard, they saw various decaying ships with extensive rust damage.

However, as they came around a bend they noticed a huge ‘100ft yacht’.

“I think we can get in there,” they said excitedly.

They then brave a rickety-looking ladder to climb aboard the huge abandoned vessel.

“Can you imagine what this place was like when it was up and running?” they said excitedly.

While the entire ‘basement’ was flooded and there’s moss everywhere – it’s giving Mary Celeste.

There were documents still sitting on the side, with skylights intact as they explored the captain’s quarters and spaces where charter guests would have sat and relaxed.

However, while they panicked that the boat had begun to move – it certainly wasn’t going anywhere fast.

A yacht that is in working order, however, is this $360 million superyacht spotted on the River Thames that’s so big it dwarfs an entire football field.
