Summary edit
| Description | Engineers and workmen are attempting to salvage the armed liner SS Manchuria, which collided with the Amphitrite (BM-2) in a heavy fog in New York Bay near Quarantine, late on the night of 13 June 1917. The Manchuria, one of the first American liners to cross the Atlantic armed with stern and forward guns as a protection against the German submarines, was out of service for some time. Two big holes were stove in her starboard side amidships, above and below the water line and down by her stern. After the collision both vessels drifted about in the fog and the Amphitrite finally became entangled in the safety net at the entrance to the harbor. The Manchuria settled with the water she had shipped and is lying far down. A close up view of the stern on the Manchuria, showing her lower deck almost even with the water line. Her stern gun can be seen on the deck. |
