I found something simillar today on yirrel beach in Winthrop ma. Wooden trunnels 1" in dia on 12-16" planks 2" thick. Ribs are approx. 8"x6" thick. no metal anywhere. We took it home and will do more investigating. The pieces we found were not as complete as the one shown in these pictures, but is very simillar. The ones we found were 3 ribs about 12' long. I grew up in this area and when I was a kid old timers told me of wrecks that occured in Bostons outer harbor many years ago.
