If memory serves there was a three turreted ship, which was made by cutting down and armoring an existing frigate but the name escapes me.

Put "Hunley" in the keyword search? Now why didn't I think of that? Thanks for the help!

Illbay is gone.

I wonder if he got banned because of his home page.....I was reading it earlier this afternoon....it was somewhat bizarre.

I'm not sure he's banned...I just know he's MIA over a week now.

Ships sink in storms, it was a fact of life during the period. It was impossible to forcast them so the Union Navy has nothing to apologize for.

That is a good one. Read up on Farragut's opinions on the monitor class. FYI, it wasn't "ships sink all the time, what the hell".
