SS Edmund Fitzgerald was a lake freighter that sank suddenly during a gale storm on November 10, 1975, while on Lake Superior. The ship went down without a distress signal in 530 feet (162 m) of water at 46°59.9′N 85°6.6′W, in Canadian waters about 17 miles (15 nm; 27 km) from the entrance to Whitefish Bay. All 29 members of the crew perished. Gordon Lightfoot's hit song, The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, helped make the incident the most famous marine disaster in the history of Great Lakes shipping.

It's a good one Joey  - and I like the Gordon Lightfoot song link. It beats the generic file I linked to. Here is my original post on circumstances of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. I'll create a link back to your model.

watching and listening really gives me a yearning for being back on the big blue dot.
big blue dot = at sea standing atop the wheelhouse seeing nothing except blue water in 360 deg.
