Summary

[edit]
Description 160103-N-ZZ999-550 - ATLANTIC OCEAN (Jan. 3, 2016) A video frame grab showing the stern of the of the sunken freighter El Faro on the seafloor, 15,000-feet deep near the Bahamas. The image was taken by Cable Underwater Recovery Vehicle (CURV) aboard the Military Sealift Command fleet ocean tug USNS Apache (T-ATF 172). Apache departed Norfolk, Va. on Oct. 19 to begin searching for wreckage from the missing U.S. flagged merchant vessel El Faro. The ship is equipped with several pieces of underwater search equipment, including a voyage data recorder locator, side-scan sonar and an underwater remote operated vehicle. The Navy's mission was to first locate the ship and, if possible, to retrieve the voyage data recorder - commonly known as a black box.
