Someone should remind the Smithsonian that a Submarine is a boat, not a ship.

Someone should remind the Smithsonian that a... recovered sunken vessel (ship or boat) is not a "ghost ship"

Well, a U-Boat is clearly not a ship.
What would preclude an underwater capable vessel of some size from being a ship?

If you send some stuff from point A to point B and it travels on a boat, how can you claim it was shipped?

“Ghost Boat” doesn’t have the same ring to it... But you’re right, a submarine is by tradition called “boat”.
