***And why the heck were the Confederates doing in Africa? ***
I asked myself the same thing? Why a lead in about a Confederate ironclad? Then a story about pollution, and a final scene with the ironclad? And nothing about how they got there or what they were doing there!

A TWIST OF SAND (1968)had an old abandoned galleon with diamonds hidden in a shipwreck buried in the sand dunes of Namibia’s Skeleton Coast.
Not a bad movie! If you can find it.

I read, or perhaps hallucinated, a story once about an early European explorer who wrote of having traveled along a river from Point A to Point B — don’t remember where. Only Point A and Point B turned out, upon further investigation, to be on different river systems, and one cannot be reached from the other without significant portage. So early European explorer was denounced as a fraud for several decades (lifetimes?) — a long time anyway . Then one year both river systems experienced unusually large flooding at same time, and a plain between them became a temporary lake, allowing boats to pass from one river system to the other, and early European explorer’s reputation was rehabilitated.
The story may have been set in South America, and it may have been fictional.

All of Geoffrey Jenkins' books were outstanding.
My favorite was "Scend of the Sea" about the disappearance of the passenger liner "Waratah" off the coast of South Africa in 1909.

Louis L’Amour wrote about this in a novel.
I must have missed that one—what was the title.
To: Hieronymus
Sorry I don’t remember the title
To: SunkenCiv
Probably the final resting place of The Flying Dutchman.Maybe he's up in the hills with Senta. After Senta sacrifices herself they were last seen rising above his ship.
