[edit]

The article makes a rather big claim that the ship was torpedoed, mined, or scuttled, without citing any sources to verify this claim. Is this pure conjecture, a local urban legend, or just somebody trying to sound interesting? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.164.12.194 (talk) 16:33, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article is written like a tour guide's story. It does not cite any sources and a search only comes up with travel forum chatter. Unreliable sources say the ship was 120 m long, not 127 ft. Impossible to verify without good citations. • Gene93k (talk) 17:00, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

When was it lost?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.24.170.99 (talk) 03:07, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

About thirty years ago I believe, though I haven't been able to find a source which gives the exact year. CT Cooper · talk 08:55, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Old name: ESMERALDA
