    Looks like the White Star Line was cursed from inception.

    In the 19th century shipwrecks happened, although the loss of life was unusually heavy. People generally did not go to sea back then for recreation.

    If they aren't afloat, and haven't been repurposed as salvage, ships are on the bottom. :^)
