I love these old boats so much work goes into them and they have so much about them ..every creak seems to tell a story ..it''s sad when any boat sinks but somehow these gentlemen of the sea seem almost invincible ..just goes to show?  hope they saved it!!

Have a look on KLTN - yes it did go under but no crew or passengers onboard - still sad though.

We were told by a waiter at the Akin restaurant that the captain was having his wicked way with a lady in his cabin when the crash happened! I like that story better than a steering failure!
