Lightship Frying Pan |
 |
|
Built in 1929, Lightship No. 115, also known as Lightship Frying Pan, was on duty as a floating lighthouse at Frying Pan Shoals off Cape Fear, NC until her retirement in 1965. Abandoned, she eventually sank and sat on the bottom at a pier, and was then raised after 3 years and refurbished. She is now offered for parties and meetings at the Chelsea Piers in Manhattan.
