Havana – This morning the Cuban Coast Guard announced that they intercepted one unmanned ship which was heading for the island. It is presumed that the ship is the SS Cotopaxi, a tramp steamer that vanished in December 1925 and is connected with the legend of the Bermuda Triangle.
It is important to mention that Cuban authorities first spotted this ship on May 16, and it was near a restricted military zone, west of Havana. The authorities made many unsuccessful attempts to communicate with the crew, and now they mobilized 3 patrol boats in order to intercept it.
Once they reached the ship, they were very surprised. Namely, they discovered that the ship actually is more than 100-year old steamer identified as the Cotopaxi. This name famously is associated with the legend of the Bermuda Triangle. On the ship there was no one from the crew on the board and the ship seemed that is abandoned for decades. It is suggested that this could actually be the tramp freighter that disappeared a long time ago, in 1925.
After exhaustive search of the ship, the captain’s logbook was discovered. That book actually was associated with the Clinchfield Navigation Company. This company us owner of the SS Cotopaxi. Still, the book did not brought any clue concerning what did happened to the ship over the last 90 years.
