Dear all,
I am sure that I posted this before, but it seems to have vanished. Oh well.
Anyway, as the ship sank, the break-up went through the forward set of engine cylinders, breaking them off. Have these cylinders ever been found? I don't recall anyone seeing them during the photographic or sonar survey of the ocean floor. Its been mentioned that the cylinders are underneath the section of boiler room 1 double bottom that was found in the debris field, but it doesn't look big enough to hide the cylinders.
My idea is that the stern section landed right on top of the cylinder sections......
Can anyone help?
Cheers chums
Paul
