That recovery, and how scientists first measured it, is the subject of Part One of this series, “The Sharks Are Back.” But recovery isn't the end of the story.

No one ever would. Somewhere out in the dark off the New England coast, in the small hours between Saturday night and Sunday morning, the side-wheel steamer Portland and every soul aboard her had simply ceased to exist. The beach was the only witness, and the beach could testify only that it had happened — not how, not precisely when, and not, as it would turn out for the better part of a century, where.]]></description><link>https://www.immrammaritime.com/post/the-portland-gale-new-england-s-titanic-and-the-hundred-year-mystery</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a46cc43950901ce7a6bfa10</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2026 20:42:04 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/6df740_71e8ac17a6bf4c6393d0275977743890~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Brian Bramson</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Art of the GuessFrank Worsley, the James Caird, and the discipline of acting without a fix.              ]]></title><description><![CDATA[In 1916, after Shackleton's *Endurance* was crushed in the Weddell Sea ice, twenty-eight men reached the dead end of Elephant Island — too remote for rescue to find. Help would have to be fetched. So six of them set out in the *James Caird*, a twenty-two-foot lifeboat with two feet of freeboard, to cross some eight hundred miles of the Scotia Sea to the whaling stations of South Georgia. ]]></description><link>https://www.immrammaritime.com/post/the-art-of-the-guessfrank-worsley-the-james-caird-and-the-discipline-of-acting-without-a-fix</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a46a551258f25aaabae76ad</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2026 18:19:10 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/6df740_ed5c0993b14445588ff9dc43fc283383~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Brian Bramson</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
