"...the one-of-a-kind ship is also the best preserved ship of its kind."How could it be any other way?

Told ya people were dying for some more GGG posts.
I’m sorry that a website isn’t available exclusively for such great information on historical and archeological posts and conversation.

the Mars didn't sink because of a design flaw or poor seamanship.Where and how they stored the gunpowder might have been a design flaw.
