He was induced, therefore to raise and walk aft, where he discovered that the boat midships was blown entirely to pieces that the head of the starboard boiler was blown out, and the top torn open; that the timbers and plank on the starboard were forced asunder and that the boat took in water whenever she rolled in that direction.\n Expedition divers on board the Blue Water Rose have visual evidence that would suggest the two copper boilers in the wreckage are consistent with that of the eyewitness account of First Mate Mr. Hibberd.\n (View wreck footage: https://vimeo.com/242668665)\n Keith Webb, President and founder of Blue Water Ventures International, Inc., stated, \"Proving this historical wreck site is that of the Pulaski is every bit as important as the recovery itself.\"\n Further details relating to this exploration project as well as other company activities will be released as operations continue.\n For further information about Blue Water V...
