Description: On April 6, 1911, the German ocean liner "Prinzess Irene" struck a sand bar off Fire Island one mile east of Lone Hill (now Fire Island Pines.) She was carrying 1725 passengers, a crew of 263, and a large general cargo. Life saving units from Lone Hill, Point O'Woods, and Blue Point transferred all passengers to the liner Prince Frederick in the space of a few hours. Tugboats worked to free the ship, which was floated after 83 hours and was assisted to harbor in Hoboken, having suffered only minor damage.
