Going to Google Earth where I can get a bit closer with marginally better resolution, I get dimensions of length ~135 feet, beam ~28 feet, two central holds, and no shadow of a pilot house from the bow, but a faint image of a flying bridge just aft the after hold, with a slight suggestion of a raised fo’c’s’le. Also no signs of cranes or masts (although those might have been swept away.)
My guess would be a small coaster or (less likely) fishing trawler that was washed ashore in a storm (or washed ashore after a mechanical breakdown or fire and has since been pushed up the beach in later storms and tides) and it had too little value to bother salvaging.
(Other coasters: 1960s or later Danish coaster](http://www.boatnerd.com/news/newpictures03b/ELISABETH-BOYEJuly_27=2C_20.jpg), 1930s German coaster, fairly modern (grounded) German coaster
I’m not sure where but my dad was stationed at an USAF Base out at or near the end of the Aleutians.
It was a very small, very secretive base. I think it was some sort of listening post.
1/ It’s not a boat, it’s too big. It’s a ship.
2/ Otherwise what tomndebb said, although not a trawler (wrong lines, trawlers do not have a long deck dominated by two hatches). Fairly bluff lines suggest to me fairly modern.
3/ It isn’t a tanker (no lines on deck, two large hatches).
4/ It just might be a barge but like tomndebb I think I can make out a structure aft, which is probably the accommodation block and bridge.
5/ It will be there because a small vessel with age on it would be worth much less than the cost of getting it off the beach, and in a remote 3rd world region, there are no environmental authorities to insist.
My first reaction was “ore ship” – not really sure why, but a very clear one.
Jesus H. Christ, if I was going to risk my life, crew and ship over vodka, it would have to be better than that cheap shit.
Let’s try this again smartass! 
Here’s a fun fact. Vitus Bering, shipwrecked there trying to get TO Kamchatka…
Ignorance fought once again, I had no idea there was a Kamchatka Vodka. But, at $7 a liter, I dont’ think I’ll be trying it.
Given the size and large deck openings, I’m guessing it’s not a ship, but an unpowered barge. As mentioned before, it could be for carrying ore, or some other bulk commodity. That might explain why it’s still there, broke it’s tow, foundered in shallow water and sunk. Not worth the cost of recovery.
I’m leaning more towards tomndebb’s coaster idea. I can make out a small shadow just aft of the aft hold. If you look at the bow, you can see that it doesn’t cast much of a shadow. That likely means that the sun was very close to directly overhead when this picture was shot (or that the boat has sunk into the sand, but that ruins my theory).
So, even a small shadow would suggest a fairly large structure back there. AFAIK, barges are pretty much flat on top.
I recently read the first half of this book, which must contain just about everything anyone could possibly wish to know about Alaska and its environs. Most interesting to me were the earliest explorers.
One of the earliest guys - I forget his name - essentially got a group together and walked from Moscow to the Sea of Okhotsk on the E coast of Russia. There they chopped down trees, built ships and sailed several hundred miles to the Kamchatka peninsula. Except they didn’t know it was a peninsula, so they left their ships where they landed, walked across the peninsula, and built another ocean-going ship, and headed east.
Sitting here in my heated/air conditioned comfort it is nigh impossible to get my head around the level of effort and determination that involved.
For some reason I found it reassuring that the Russian fur traders who initially moved into the Aleutians were just as shitty to the indigenous North Americans as the Europeans who approached from other directions!
I agree that it could be a barge, but as others have said, there does appear to be an aft superstructure which a barge would not have.
Size and large deck openings are in no way indicative. There are any number of small vessels the size of this vessel (see **tomndebb’s ** examples). All bulk carriers, GP vessels or small container vessels have large deck openings: time in port is money, and large hatch openings allow faster discharge of bulk commodities, and loading/discharge of containers.
Further, the theory that it is a barge is not necessary to explain why it’s still there. Conventional ships lose their engines or steering and go aground in storms all the time. A small GP vessel of between 10 and 20 years of age would be worth a few million dollars in good condition. The cost of salving a vessel off a beach (an extremely difficult thing to do at all) would easily approach that. In a remote location, even the establishment cost of getting the necessary salvage vessels and gear would approach or exceed a million, before you even start work. Heck, I’m currently having an argument with some salvage tugs who want several million bucks for one day’s work, within a couple of miles of their operating base.
