53 Torrent Shipwreck Discovery, Boat Hoses, Scuba Diving Cat

http://www.TheBoaters.TV EP 53 — First up today: A Private Dive Team Discovers Wreckage of an American Ship That Sank 139 Years Ago Off South-Central Alaska Coast

It was reported last Monday that a private dive team discovered the wreckage of an American ship that sank 139 years ago off the mainland of south-central Alaska.

In 1868, the “Torrent,” a 641-ton three-masted sailing bark, sank in Alaska’s Cook Inlet after tidal currents rammed it into a reef.

Aboard the vessel at the time were women, children and a battery of 130 U.S. Army soldiers who had come north to build the first U.S. military fort on the mainland of south-central Alaska. Documents from the period show that all passengers survived the accident.

The vessel wreckage was actually first discovered back in July after a nearly two-year long search by a four-man dive team led by Steve Lloyd, a shipwreck historian and veteran of a half-dozen other shipwreck expeditions in Alaska.

The group held back on announcing its discovery until this week so the state could take steps to preserve and protect the shipwreck, which is now being considered for listing in the National Registry of Historic Places.

To learn more and see more incredible photos from the site, please head on over to Steve Lloyd’s website at http://www.LostShipwrecks.com

Steve Lloyd has also posted the video you are watching on YouTube, just uploaded last week and featuring footage of the wreckage:

Congratulations to Steve and his entire team for their determination in bringing the Torrent and its history to the surface.

Next up: Knowing When and How to Purchase Replacement Hoses for Your Boat

If you think that a hose is a hose is a hose is a hose, think again. As boating writers Gordon and Janet Groene point out, any broken hose on your boat spells TROUBLE, so it’s important to replace hoses before they fail.

When it comes to buying the right replacement hose in the right size and installing it to marine standards, we present some specs that the Groenes suggest you look for with regard to the following categories:

* Temperature Rating
* Pressure Rating
* Suction Rating
* Compatibility
* Flexibility

But most importantly, know that installing the wrong hose could cause breakdown or an accident, void your guarantee or reduce your insurance settlement. It’s not a purchase to be taken lightly.

Finally today: Crazy Video of Hawkeye — The Scuba Diving (Get This!) Cat

Gene Alba of Redding California built a special diving apparatus for his cat, Hawkeye, which allows the cat to spend up to one hour at a time underwater.

Crazier still is that Hawkeye’s owners is not his only diving companion …there’s also Alba’s dog, Mutton!
