Frank, sadly you are not even close to running out of naval disasters!

Man, your site is a treasure-trove of naval history information, and not just about maritime disasters.
I'm going to use some of it later; we haven't gotten all the naval experts over here to this site yet, but they're coming over slowly, from the other site. The U.S. Army's over here, but not all of the U.S. Navy yet.
I remember the very first naval thread I ever posted, about the German clipper-ship
Seeadler, the last clipper-ship used in modern warfare.
That was a couple of years ago; that thread sunk like a lead ballon.
The second naval post I ever posted was about the Japanese battleship
Yamato, in which I inquired whether or not it's true, the day of the mammoth battleship is over.
That one got a few responses, most of them something along the lines of, "well, that professional civilian sure doesn't know much, does he?"
For the record, although I've seen a lot of things in my life, I don't ever recall in real life, seeing a U.S. Navy vessel of any sort, or at least one that was identified to me as being such (in other words, I might have seen one, but didn't know what it was). The only authentic real-life naval ships I've ever set my eyes on were Royal Navy vessels, Russian rust-buckets, and Ukrainian rust-buckets (the latter two on the Black Sea).
And yes, I've been on seas before (the Atlantic, the North Sea, the Baltic Sea, the Black Sea), but as there was always so much to see, observed some phenomenae more than others.
