Good point; I'd not thought of NUMAs Hunley expedition. Granted, Hunley was also a smaller boat and hadn't had the severity of hull breach you might expect from a mine, so aquatic life intrusion might have been lessened.
I don't know; it's a curious conundrum. Since I haven't seen the wreck in question, I'm only asking questions.
