The wreck of the MV Excelsior in Mutton Cove (Osborne, South Australia) is in one of the oddest locations you might imagine.

A short walk in what seems like a field brings you right up to her rusted forgotten bow resting in swampy wetland.

Although no lives where lost on her journey here she still feels like her crew is still willing and waiting to leave.
