A fierce storm. A doomed ship. A tragic tale lost to time.
In this episode of, New England Legends, Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger row out to Thatcher’s Island off the coast of Rockport, Massachusetts, to uncover the chilling story of the Watch and Wait.
In August of 1635, during the Great New England Hurricane, 23 souls—two large families among them—fought to survive the unforgiving sea. Only two would live to tell the tale. What happened that fateful night, and how did it leave its mark on the island forever?
