Is RV Hero really a "shipwreck"?

[edit]

I'd argue that RV Hero isn't a shipwreck, Looking at the dictionary definition (Oxford, Cambridge) they say "at sea". Hero, an unseaworthy broken old hulk finally sinking while tied up in port does not seem, to me, to be anything like a shipwreck. Shouldn't this be in "other incidents" instead? -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 22:05, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Finlay McWalter: - sorry for the late reply. As the vessel sank, it is correct to list is in the shipwrecks section. Mjroots (talk) 10:55, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
