- mrsilencedogood 2y agoSame. When we say "virtually intact", I'm guessing that means, aside from the torpedo that went through the hull? "It caught fire, exploded and then disappeared beneath the murky waters of the North Sea off north-east Scotland in less than eight minutes." So I wonder how much there is "“All the brass work on the wreck, like the portholes and the breaches for the deck guns, are all still shiny … it’s probably due to the fact that she was just built so well.”" Seems to be enough left that resembles the ship that it still captivated the finders, instead of just being "we figured out where it went down."
