| S.S. Morro Castle | ||||||
| In a historic tale of things gone wrong and things done wrong, the cruise ship MORRO CASTLE caught fire. Her captain had mysteriously died and his replacement had turned the ship into the wind in such a way as to help spread the flames until the whole ship was ablaze - full of passengers. Fire fighting equipment had been shut off, cutting water to the hoses up on deck. The burned out hulk was beached next to a hotel in New Jersey, providing a tourist attraction visited by many of the locals. | ||||||
