The Struan was a ship which sank in front of Camp Meriwether on Christmas of 1890 when the property was owned by the Chamberlands. They hauled the anchors and some chain out of the water, and the capstan used to work the anchors was removed from the ocean in the 1950's. The ship was hauling a cargo of lumber which was put to good use by the Chamberland's as well as others in the area.
