El Faro Found

At around 15k down, supposedly upright and in one piece; ROV to check out maybe as early as the end of the week

One piece may be a relative term. Apparently the hulk is missing the upper deck including the bridge, so no voyage recorder. They planning to map the debris field now.

Not to mention structural damage from hitting the bottom. Technically a stepped-on beer can is in one piece too....
