Enjoy

Yes, you can tell they are VERY much in the building stage as many well known ship/sub/etc wrecks are not yet included.

So true, they don't have any entry for the sinking of the SS Lexington in Long Island Sound. I was personally involved in finding that wreck.

I,ve read the history of that sinking, what a horror story. The amazing thing was, of the 4 survivors of that wreck, one person survived by crawling into the center of a bail of cotton and floated in the water for 2 days in (NY) winter weather. He did not have so much as frostbite when he crawled from the bail upon it reaching shore. The other thing that was just horrible was the life boat that was over filled and launched, only to get sucked into the paddle wheel.
