The story of it getting wrecked is interesting too. Also it broke in half 48 hours after running aground. A time lapse of it's erosion would be pretty cool,

Ship wrecks are interesting, I think the only one I have seen in real life is the one off the shore of the Hawaiian island Lanaii. I flew over it in a Cessna once. My wife took pictures riding in the back seat.

Agreed. I love being on deck riding a ferry but the thought of being anywhere near a boat going down... <shudders>
