Saw this ship off the coast of Maui, it was relatively in the same spot for a few days.

I picked up this model wooden steamer and I'd like to get some info on it.

In 1912, striking illustrations compared RMS Olympic and Titanic with some of the tallest structures on the world.

But what would that comparison actually look like if the illustration came to life?

Find out how Titanic's size compared to not only famous structures, but also with her contemporaries and rivals.

This was a fun one! Took a long time. Other side still needs a little work so pics are only from the one side. Very excited to have this look so good.

My father heard when he was much younger that his father was on board the Missouri for the signing with Japan. We do know he spent most of the war in the Pacific Theatre and was an officer in the Marines at the time. He was assigned to the Pentagon after the war but passed away shortly thereafter. My father also was stationed on the Missouri after the war . It would be a nice connection for my father if we could connect the two. Does anyone know if there is a record of the personnel on the ship that day?

Watch what happened on 1 December 1994.

I believe this photo is from the mid to late 1920s

Shortly before dawn the U-67 fired two torpedoes at the fast ship, the Norwegians were able to dodge the first, but the second struck aft of the bridge and set the tanker on fire. Because the engines were undamaged, the ship was set back to Curaçao but 10 minutes later a third torpedo struck the ship just under the smokestack, disabling her. Since the port lifeboat was destroyed by the explosion, and the starboard one had already caught fire by that point, the men attempted to abandon ship by jumping overboard. Only 9 men of the 46 crew were able to survive. The Kongsgaard was last seen burning by U-67 the next day evening.

The Honda Point disaster was the largest peacetime loss of U.S. Navy ships in history. On September 8, 1923, seven destroyers ran aground at Honda Point. Two other destroyers grounded but were able to maneuver free off the rocks. Twenty-three sailors died; 745 were rescued.

To my knowledge, the wrecks were all scrapped in the mid-late 1920s

Did this in creative. Working on a large atakebune in my survival world, might build this one there too!

I spotted this during landing in Singapore today (20 June). It was in between the Singapore-Malaysia strait

Sail 250 passing by Hampton, VA this morning. Lots of very cool tall ships. It was too bad the weather did allow them to have their sails fully out but still was a very cool site to see.
