Read below about the Morro Castle, just one of the many fascinating ships mentioned on the chart... The Morro Castle - "This luxury liner, built in 1930, made the New York to Havana run. Her owner, the Ward LIne, paid low wages, and as a result many of her crew were smuggling liquor, drugs, and illegal aliens into the US. On September 7, 1934, in a fierce gale, disaster struck. Her captain died suddenly from a heart attack, and a fire broke out in the drawing room and quickly spread. Assuming command, the Chief Officer maintained course and at first did not send out an SOS to keep from paying a salvage fee. When he finally ordered the ship abandoned, the crew rushed to the lifeboats leaving the passengers to fend for themselves. The burning liner finally drifted ashore; 137 of 455 people perished - mostly passengers. This beautiful chart is a great conversation piece in any home or office.
