All were large freighters/tankers?

I played around with shooting a tanker last night. Reloaded the saved game several times and used the same stern shot depths on a large tanker in a flat calm sea and watched it hit with the camera.

At 15-20 feet set depth I was tearing the props up. At 24 feet I went under the props and blew up against the keel or just under it.

I'll try it again with some medium tankers/freighters the next time I find a good target/sea.
