Also in the OP link was this footnote to history-the loss of USS Conestoga (AT-54) :http://gizmodo.com/mysterious-disappearance-of-the-uss-conestoga-finally-s-1766876364 Happened March 25 1921, right outside San Francisco Bay off the Farralon Island Marine Preserve...great white infested feeding grounds. The First World War-era tugboat disappeared without a trace after setting off for Tutuila, American Samoa, by way of Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Its discovery shows that the ship never made it very far, sinking in stormy weather just 30 miles (48 km) from its departure point. A mistaken report out of Pearl Harbor that the vessel had arrived there as planned meant that it took weeks before anyone had even realized the Conestoga was missing.
Until now, now one knew where the wreck was located, or what happened. Despite an extensive search, the only trace found of her at the time of her loss was a lifeboat bearing the initial letter of her name found near Manzanillo, Mexico. After the Navy realized that the Conestoga had not, in fact, arrived in Oahu, the military focused its search for the missing ship around the Hawaiian Islands, ultimately deploying about 60 vessels—“including the entire destroyer fleet at Pearl Harbor and submarines”— only 2000 miles off course!
