Least this one doesn't have the advertising bar on the bottom

The stern is below rust line

There was a lot more boats out there earlier, I would agree get in before it gets dark

The folks sinking it either miscalculated for the amount of time it would take, or they did it on purpose to make sure it sank after dark

I'm guessing miscalculated

 

[flashback]

Agreed, they want it to land on its keel and are probably being over cautious to be sure of that.

Well I'm done, will wait for news replay

looks like water running out of some holes above water line.
so who really knows how long this sinking will take

With all the boats still hanging around the ship, they do not expect it to sink any time soon
