Cape Levenshtern

Cape Levenshtern (Russian: Mys Levenshterna) is a cape on the northeast coast of Sakhalin Island in the western Sea of Okhotsk. It is rounded and rugged. It lies 37 km (about 23 mi) to the south-southeast of Cape Elizabeth, the northern point of the island.

History
On the night of 7 June 1855, the ship Jefferson (396 tons), of New London, was wrecked on the cape during a dense fog. All hands were saved by the ship Reindeer, of New Bedford, which also salvaged most of the cargo of oil and bone.
