Some interesting findings. Talking to one of the directors on the Hunley board a few months ago he told me that they are pretty sure they did not get far enough away from the torpedo when it went off (they did not reel off all the line on the torpedo before detonating) and that is what got them. That was always the theory going in before they found the sub and it is looking like it will be the case.
