2400 year old Greek Ship Found

This is pretty neat. Would love to read more about how this ship changes the thinking about Greek ship construction and capabilities. The researchers mentioned in the article said it would change our understanding of ancient ship building.

Fascinating discovery. I should have studied nautical archaeology while at A&M.

I took 2 Nautical Archaeology classes. Both were amazing. One was taught by a former rock and roll drummer, can't remember his name (he was an older gentleman then) , or the name of his ban but it was a fairly well known one (at least I had heard of them). This would have been 2003 maybe?

Are you talking about Wayne Smith? Believe he was a musician at one point to.

Man did anything and everything you can imagine. Sat and spoke with him about the parents he had at one point. Amazing person!

Just googled him and yes it was him. Man that was an awesome class he gave. Looked up his bio and damn your right, that man did everything.

Wayne Smith took some photos for several projects I worked on, and he indeed is a musician and interesting fellow, I haven't seen him in a few years, but he's an original, that's for sure.


And that shipwreck is major cool. I LOVE that stuff. It's as if it just sunk and everything as it fell in some ways. I too wish I'd gone into nautical history, research, archaeology or engineering.
