One of the biggest questions I was asked is “where is the back half of the ship?” In answer to this the ship beached on a sandbar, the bow area stuck fast and the stern in deeper water. The waves smashing into her had a bending effect and snapped the ship in two, the stern disappeared rather quickly in comparison with the bow. See photos below of her on a calm day where the stern can be easily seen. My original website had a very active update to this page as we watched the decay over several years. I just now present some photos of her demise.
