HMS Investigator found upright.

Other posting that don't really fit into a catagory. Odd web sites you have found, or anything peculiar. If you don't think it will fit into the rest of the forum bung it here.

I wonder how many of these vessels there are around the world. There always seems to be one being discovered every so often.

There was this story a week or so ago of one discovered at ground zero.

The remains of a ship dating back to the 18th century have been uncovered by workers close to the the old World Trade Centre site in lower Manhattan.

Archaeologists said the 32ft-long vessel was probably used along with other debris to fill in land to extend New York City into the Hudson River.

Those who examined the find described it as 'significant'.
