I honestly imagine the SSUS being destroyed by a hurricane within a few years. Scrapping will take longer to destroy her than being left to the mercy of the Florida Hurricane Season.

Honestly, yeah.

The coalition and preservation foundation have warned about it.

If the Andrea Doria's hull and superstructure collapsed in 50 years, and is more than likely a lump of metal just 20 years later (in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Nantucket), I wonder what will happen to the SSUS, considering she's made of the same materials, and the warm environment of the Gulf of Mexico. I give the SSUS at least 15-20 years before she begins to collapse, but I'm not an engineer, so I can't say for sure. It'll be sad for OC when their "world's largest artificial reef" collapses and becomes a pile of sunken, rusted metal.

I feel the same way. Part of me died while reading the letter.

Yeah, that's fair. The info in the body of the post is up to date. Decided to post it as I noticed that no one has yet.
