View this post on Instagram As hundreds of historic vessels from across the globe sail into New York Harbor this week, one of New York’s own mysteriously sank beneath Brooklyn waters. The PILOT — a schooner-turned-restaurant once used by researcher Jacques Cousteau — buckled beneath the waves in the middle of the night Wednesday, sending bar stools, restaurant equipment and other debris into the Henry Street Basin near Red Hook. Videos taken by kayakers show the giant masts of the 102-year-old former racing schooner sticking out of the surface and its wooden chairs floating in the mucky water nearby.
