yeah that one didnt go as planned. on the bright side i think your the only one who managed to see the pic

I couldn't see your picture either barrown1990, what I did is right clicked the red cross and than clicked on properties. There I could see the link AND the name of the ship in it.
This is the link:

it is indeed. was it that obvious again?

VirtualSkipper · « **Reply #35 on:** February 15, 2011, 13:56:45 »

No, I have this very big library of ships and shipwrecks in my head you see.

That's why this picture became very familiar to me because I watched on YouTube that the ship was getting sunk to be an arctificial reef.

New question:

In the movie 'Below' the name of the submarine was USS Tiger Shark, but what is the REAL name of the submarine being used in this film?

matt5674 · « **Reply #37 on:** February 18, 2011, 04:28:23 »

USS Silversides (SS-236)

USS Silversides (SS-236)

heres a new one. in the film yangste incident (apologies if not spelt correctly) the real hms amethyst re-enacted her role. but since her enginges were no longer working, what ship was used as a double for amethyst in the shots of the ship moving?

rjwhyte09 · « **Reply #39 on:** April 04, 2011, 00:34:08 »

RMS Aquitania

RMS Aquitania

the correct anser was amethyst's sister ship hms magpie

Rbsanford · « **Reply #41 on:** July 30, 2011, 05:08:13 »

here's an easy one: what small greek cruise ship became famous last december after her engines failed in a storm near antarctica?

Clelia II

barrown1990 · « **Reply #43 on:** July 30, 2011, 17:48:31 »

ok here is a question,

hms prince of wales
hms dorsetshire
hms nelson
hms rodney

the odd one out is the one you must find. to prove you are not just gessing you must state why that ship is the odd one out

HMS Dorsetshire.. cause it is a heavy cruiser and the rest are Battelships

saltydog · « **Reply #45 on:** August 10, 2011, 02:49:46 »

I think the HMS Nelson, the only ship not involved in the sinking of the Bismarck..

thats the anser i had in mind. it was just coincidene that the dorsetshire was the only cruiser though larsdehaan is just as correct with the anser
