intensely_human,

So uh … how does a ship sink on land? Was the sea level higher then? Is the ship between low and high tide lines? Was there a tsunami?

Just a guess, if I was turning an irrigation canal into a road and there was a boat sunk in the mud I would likely put fill on top and call it good. St. Augustine is right on the coast, and Florida’s highest elevation is 345 feet so canals are more common around the wetlands

intensely_human,

Are canals at sea level, and now diked off to be dry? Or would they have had locks back when this ship was sailing?
