There's a place in Russia (I think) where a large lake dried up and the boats that were once on it are beached in a desert. They were more pleasure craft than industrial, though.
I want to say the lake dried because one of the the two rivers that fed it was dammed during the Soviet era and the both river's watershed dried up.
Its not in Russia, its in Kazakhstan. This place named Aral sea and it ulmost dried up due to unforseen consequences of soviet engineering project
This so much reminds me of that scene from Close Encounters Of The Third Kind when they discovered that missing ship having been deposited in the middle of the desert!
