after close examination of the wreck this report was put together
after examination of the wreck, we have come to the conclusion that the Maine before the final explosion, had sustained many smaller ones, and also had already started taking on water, but not sufficient to sink it, when the aircraft hit in a kamikaze attack, it stuck between the boiler and the mast, due to the explosion of the bomb (or bombs, we are unsure how many it carried) it set off a magazine explosion, blowing it up at the center (note, if you where to put the two main pieces together you would notice that it's shorter than the it was originally). according to Bulwark 1, after the plane dived, it hit the ship (he said he didn't know where) and blew up, about 10 seconds later the ship blew up, rising out of the water before sinking, according to the sailor that survived the incident he said "I was in the torpedo area when the captain said to evacuate, I tried to get out, but then I heard an explosion, and then another bigger one shortly after, it knocked me off my feet, I stayed there as long as I could, it must have been a long time, then, I escaped through a hole, fortunately I found a pocket of air, then something hit my head, the next thing I knew, I was surrounded by strange men, a day later, they sent me home" after this, we have decided to hold a design contest, to make a ship out of the remaining usable pieces
