    ANNIVERSARY ROAD TRIP 9807

    DAY 1. HAVANA: I begin my Morro Castle anniversary road trip, walking along a street in Havana, the city from which the liner Morro Castle departed for the final time on September 6, 1934. I am feeling the buzz from perhaps one too many Mojitos, of which I am glad because it has taken the edge...

    51st Anniversary approaches

    How much of the ship is remaining intact? Little of the decks, excepting bow and stern, I suppose. I read of the ship appearing today as a "scooped out melon". I gather that gravity and corrosion have conspired to break the bow free, directing the prow toward the ocean floor. DOes anyone...

    Andrea Doria 50th Anniversary PBS Program

    As the 50th Anniversary of the sinking of the Doria looms out of the fog, I thought I'd mention that "Secrets of the Dead" will be airing several times this week, repeating the show on the loss of the liner. Looking at images of the pristine ship filling while laying on her side, July 26...

    Anniversary

    94 years ago my favorite ship collided with an iceberg, which caused some 1,500 men, women, and children to drown in the freezing North Atlantic-their dreams obliterated by such a disastrous tragedy. My kind regards to Lillian Asplund, Barbara, and Millvina Dean. And those 1,500 "lost" lives...

    Maritime Anniversaries

    I'm working on a list of maritime anniversaries covering the next few years - events that could form the focus of an exhibition or lecture, preferably with an Australian element. The loss of the Waratah in 1909 is an example, although of course I'm not necessarily looking for...
