1871 article about Westfield explosion in New York City
The Hudson River Maritime Museum has a great blog, where they post historical accounts of maritime history in and around the Hudson River Valley and New York City. This article is from Harper's Weekly, about 2 weeks after the Staten Island ferry Westfield exploded in its slip in Manhattan, killing at least 85 people. They determined later that it was a boiler explosion, but that was not known at the time this was written:

Trying to remember a specific shipwreck
Okay so I'll recount what I remember. There's a youtube documentary on it and I believe an actual documentary. The survivors were stranded on ice, I believe there was only one ship. The captain was controversial, I think a lot of people blamed him for what happened or some poor decision making. There were about 3 Or so dogs that were eaten and there was canabalism. I dont believe it's the Erebus and Terror ships. I know this is incredibly incredibly vague but it's all I can remember. I'll add more edits as I recall any more info. Thank you.

Is there a sub about wreck surviving story?
And if not, would you be interested in it? I love surviving stories, especially about wreck and how human adapts to difficult conditions. I would have a loooot to tell you.
Would you be interested or is this already existing on reddit?

Wrong about gold?
Do you know of any examples of a company claiming gold in a shipwreck, only to come up empty during salvage operations?

looking for info on a certain shipwreck.
I believe its a ship wreck any way. my best friend and I take trips up to harrisville Michigan. he has a cottage right on lake Huron. (saw this in person) we came across this wreckage of a ship almost beached. some of it is sticking out of the water. was wondering if any one here lives around harrisville or know anything about it, maybe locals will know something? don't know what kind of vessel it is, it looks to be about at least 100 years or older. im sure i found it on google maps. i have the coordinates for it. 44°43'29"N 83°17'11"W. My friend and I would greatly appreciate it. peace and love to all!!

Titanic: Then vs Now
Our friend Mike from Oceanliner Designs posted a pretty cool video where he recreates some iconic photos of Titanic as she sits now. Not sure if it’s a sim software he’s using, but still really cool and I thought some of you would enjoy it.
