Here's a link to a thread on RBW that shows a color painting of the ship at sea:

There's supposed to be an upcoming article on the discovery of the wreck that will appear in Wreck Diving Magazine.

Fantastic Stories!

One thing is for sure though, Republican Governor John Harte McGraw, is most certainly luxuriously mustachioed.

It's such a small world . . . the fellow, Mike Barnette, who found the ship, is a regular dive buddy of two friends of mine in Florida. A local ship, found on the other side of the country by someone I sort of know . . . how strange is that?
