Actually max, it is a very nice picture (congrats to Elaine) of the STERN. At the time of the sinking, a large section of the upper bulwarks were cut away, including the upper rudder shaft support.
Can anybody tell me that they've seen a rudder on Palawan?
I think not.
That's because it was cut away during the pre sinking preparation along with the prop, and massive amounts of hull and structure, in some cases, below the main deck line.
Max, don't get mad, but you need to look at some of the web sites suggested by some of the other members, and reconsider.
