Thanks so much for responding!. As I mentioned, it would be cool to see a picture of that.
RGV250100 Says:
yes she can just be seen when the tide is down.
Spartan00000000 Says:
is the shadow of the hull visible from the air like the Arizona or Prinz Eugen? wish someone had a picture of that.
PhilosopherGaming Says:
what not even generaly?
UnusualSteve Says:
That's intriguing; was there a reason for that, do you know?
pacquiaovsmarquezIV Says:
This vid is a favorite on Beirut
ozawablog Says:
This vid went viral on Central African Republic

The props were salvaged in the early 1950's by the RN.There were plans to salvage the ship but public opposition and concerns about the amount of unexploded ordinance stopped this.The ships bell is now part of a memorial.
vv55sst Says:
Curious. The Prop.s are gone. Wonder if they were salvaged from the wreck?
kirsty7762 Says:
please dont talk about her unles you new somebody that was on her when she went down/my grandad was on her/ he survived but a lot of his ship mates did not/and he sufferd over the loss of his mates until he died at the age of 55 years old
SteffanLlwyd Says:
Yes. Very old and vulnerable. The Oak had returned from a hunt on the Atlantic when it had become obvious it could not keep up with modern ships. What else could Britain do but fight with what we had, much of which was obsolete. An awful loss.
SteffanLlwyd Says:
My wife's great uncle was killed on Royal Oak. Perhaps they knew each other?
kirsty7762 Says:
one of the best things inhave seen of the royal oak my grandad was on her when she went down he servived but a lot of his ship mates did not so rest in peace to all of them

prudenceislandboy Says:
Dude she was an old lady when she was sunk..I think she was built in 1915...built like a brick shithouse yeah, but she was still tired out.
prudenceislandboy Says:
Sad to think that theres still 833 men inside of her.
modelleg Says:
Awesome.
clubsport911 Says:
So where are the propellors (given that diving on this wreck is forbidden). My assumption is that before it was designated as a war grave, the MOD swiped them ? Also, what value have these (impressive sounding) anti-torpedo bulges etc when only 3 torpedos sunk such a mighty vessel

osu45f Says:
It was fairly obviously done with a vessel mounted multibeam (in very good weather!). Not sure what software they used, its just points, no model. Very nice.
albionsseed Says:
Were the scan taken from an ROV fitted with 8125 or was it towed? Also I was curious as to the software that was used to generate the model.
vv55sst Says:
- its good that they do so. After this amount of time, the munitions are probably pretty well inert, but the oil might start leaking. I've been on the USS Arizona Memorial and the battleship still leaks oil to this day.
Paraffinmeister Says:
That and it's a mark of respect for the 833 men who died on her. The navy do keep an eye on her and survey her regularly to check her condition though since she still has a large ammount of fuel oil and un-exploded ordenance on board.
vv55sst Says:
- That's understandable, since many divers seem incapable of not touching cool things within reach. Did they ever do an underwater survey of the wreck (as was done for the USS Arizona)?
Paraffinmeister Says:
Yep. She's a complete no-go narea for divers.
