That would be correct. This was sinking number two; both caught on film!

you could say someone 'pulled the trigger' the second time (Pacific)las opposed to 'setting the fuse' the first time...(Atlantic)and we'll recollect the Kamikaze attack, but ignore altogether, that didn't sink her!!

nope nowhere near a nuclear detonation. The photo(note vertical crosshair) is from a periscope view of the attacking submarine.

That totally escaped me.

So now I'm thinking SS-237 and a fine product of Mare Island.

Trying to tie the clues together but I'm still winding up in dead end alleys.

And by the way, George talked the new owners of the Gruenhagen house next door to have the redwood tree removed because he doesn't like the needles that drop. That house was built by Leonard Gruenhagen who was VP of Venop Builders in town, and he was instumental in getting the St. John's Lutheran church built on Linda Vista. I used to fly control line model planes on that property when I was a younger punk. George's property was also owned by the Gruenhagen's and was the rough baseball diamond we played on. There was also a shooting backstop there we used to target shoot with .22 rifles. Good times.

I noticed the tall cranes from Trower as I drove back from lunch at Fume today. I had two huge ones removed and the decaying root systems still cause sinking in the garden. Big hint: HW3 would get this one in a second!

I've been waiting for the moment of claravoyance but haven't devoted any time to research of late. HW3? Huge wallets? Heavy water? Hidious wallpaper? Harmonious wailings? Happy waldo?

I knew when Aktungbby posted an image puzzle that I wouldn't be participating in this one, you either have to be as brainy as a Mensa question setter or extremely bloody lucky to guess it and, I'm not either of them.

Keep it simple bby.

Already Done! To reiterate: the ship was sunk twice on film. 1: by fused device (Atlantic). 2 by a 'triggered device'.(Pacific-where it rests today) 3: It survived a horrendous kamikaze attack which killed about 25% of the crew. HW3 would guess it in a snap! Now set yer brainy course for 140 and solve it!
