  • The Adriatic: A Civil War Era Ship Uncovered
    In 1864, the American packet ship Adriatic was on voyage from London to New York when it was captured and burned by the notorious Confederate raider CSS Tennessee. The passengers and crew were taken prisoner, but the ship fell out of memory. In 2016, Captains John Noonan and John Bricker, and their team of divers discovered the old sailing vessel, along with some of its artifacts. John Noonan and John Bricker join me as guests to discuss the Adriatic, how they found, and the research involved to identify it. Written, edited, and produced by Rich Napolitano.

  • The Inferno of the Morro Castle
    The Morro Castle shipwreck of 1934 was a tragic maritime disaster involving a luxury passenger liner operated by the Ward Line. On September 8, 1934, while en route from Havana to New York, the ship caught fire off the coast of New Jersey near Asbury Park, resulting in the deaths of 137 passengers and crew. The fire, which was later suspected to be an act of arson, spread rapidly due to strong winds and flammable materials onboard, forcing many to jump into rough seas. The burning vessel eventually ran aground on the beach, becoming a chilling symbol of maritime safety failures. The disaster led to sweeping changes in U.S. maritime safety regulations.

  • Discovering the Shipwrecks of Lake Ontario
    In 2025, a team of eight students, scientists, and engineers from the University of Rhode Island conducted the first survey of known shipwrecks in the Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary. Using URI’s new, state-of-the-art remotely operated vehicle, named “Rhody”, the student-led team documented 17 shipwrecks. Having embarked from Oswego, New York, aboard the research vessel Lake Guardian, which is owned and operated by the Environmental Protection Agency, the team discovered several new shipwrecks while mapping the lakebed. Jason Fahy and Holly Pettus from the University of Rhode Island are my guests. Mentioned in this episode: NOAA Ocean Exploration Cooperative Institute JM Robotics VOYIS Discovery Stereo Camera Recording of the expedition's live stream New York Times article Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary on Facebook Dr. Robert Ballard's nautiluslive.org American Geophysical Union Annual Meeting Written, edited, and produced by Rich Napolitano.

  • King Henry VIII's Lost Warship: The Mary Rose
    The Mary Rose was a warship of the Tudor era of the English monarchy, built in 1510 during the reign of King Henry VIII. The hulking ship was the king's favorite for many years, until it inexplicably sank in Portsmouth Harbour in 1545 as it sailed out to meet the invading French fleet. Over 400 years later, the Mary Rose was raised and its artifacts preserved. My guest is author and historian Richard M. Jones. Written, edited, and produced by Rich Napolitano.
