A shrimp trawler washed ashore in Myrtle Beach during “Ian” & it has quite a history

The Coast Guard rescued the crew, who were treated at the hospital and later released, but had to leave the boat adrift

Newsroom October 3 07:01

Most Myrtle Beach attractions tend to be intentional, placed on or near the beach on purpose.

The Grand Strand’s newest attraction was brought to shore by a force of nature — Hurricane Ian.

A shrimp trawler, named the Shayna Michelle, washed ashore on Friday after losing power the day before the storm arrived, according to a GoFundMe set up to help pay for the boat’s removal.

“Holden Beach Seafood’s shrimp boat the Shayna Michelle (formerly the Winds of Fortune), and crew were trying to make their way back home to Holden Beach, NC before Hurricane Ian made it to our coast,” the GoFundMe page says. “However, Thursday evening, they were stranded about two miles off the coast of Myrtle Beach with engine issues.”

The Coast Guard rescued the crew, who were treated at the hospital and later released, but had to leave the boat adrift.

“Eventually, and in the middle of Hurricane Ian’s arrival, the Shayna Michelle washed up near the Mystic Sea (hotel) in Myrtle Beach,” the GoFundMe page continued. “Help us get her off the shore and back catching those amazing local shrimp that we all love!”
