A lot of nice projectiles came out of that ship.  They had a nice historic site back in the 90's until a hurricane flooded it.  Glad to see progress being made.

While Googling this story I can upon this online book, Encyclopedia of Civil War Shipwrecks.  Its free to read online and I found the parts I read to be very interesting:
