it's getting dark. no one is going to see this thing sink... they'll say it sunk and tow it somewhere and use it as a secret mission boat...

It’s going to create a small snorkeling and diving service industry. The ship is so large, and where they plan for it to rest will be such that novice snorkelers can view it from the surface and more advanced divers can explore inside of it.
I dove the H.M.S. Empire Mica, a British tanker freighter hauling fuel from Texas to Great Britain in WWII that was torpedoes by a German submarine in the Gulf about 20 or so miles out from Panama City.

It sits at about the same depth that the SS United States will sit. It should be popular with divers.

Absolutely.

They should have had a dozen fire boats out there drenching it from all sides aiming for lower windows etc.

Let’s get this show on the road!

Given the state of our country it is actually poetic that the boat will sink with a whimper after dark.

An infrared night vision video of the boat sinking would actually look cool IMO.

The "back" has been sinking some since 1. Watching and listening to the music accompanying I just woke up from a nap and will be able to watch the sinking at 2am if some lights are kicked on.

Safety and doing this properly is paramount but man I’ll be disappointed if they don’t at least put lights on it so we can watch it go down

I watched Titanic, which was filmed in 1997, and it was lit up when it sank in the dark of night. I'm sure this will be too.

They have that new night vision for boats that shows up on your display like it’s day time. It could be done

The live video isn’t using night vision, looks like they are just shining flashlights at the boat

My wife is gonna die laughing at me when she gets home and I had this on. She got home around 2pm, left for a friends birthday party at 5pm, and probably is going to make it home before this bitch sinks at midnight

Told her it was like the moon landing baby. I got to have evidence before I go check them coordinates and burn that expensive boat gas.
