A Genuinely Baltimore Mystery


In its heyday
On December 14, Baltimore's famous (or infamous) Tiki Barge went missing.

The former Polynesian themed bar, located next to the Baltimore Yacht club, much to the consternation of the Yacht owners, was known for its very un-yacht club atmosphere and a swimming pool that one could wade across after getting a drink.

It appears that someone bought the barge, which had declined significantly in price after a decade with no offers, and either took it to the breakers, or sank it to make an artificial reef.

Anyone with current information on the location of this quintessentially Baltimore weirdness is encouraged to contact Matti Gellman at the Baltimore Banner.
