The USS Moody ( DD-277 ) is World War One Clemson Class Four Stack Destroyer.
She was over 314 feet long, over 30 feet wide and was 1100 tons, a true piece of naval history.
She was heavily armed, with 12 torpedo launchers and many guns. The torpedos she shot were 21 feet long and 21 inches wide. The Mark 8 torpedo was the baddest thing around in its day.
She sit on the sand at 150 FSW, but most of the real estate is about 130 FSW. LOTS OF STUFF TO EXPLORE AND FIND.
ITS AN INCREDIBLE DIVE.
Looking like May 19 works for most.
