Improved to Good Article status by Parsecboy (talk). Nominated by Cwmhiraeth (talk) at 09:44, 14 October 2016 (UTC).

Recent GA, well referenced, neutral, interesting, timely nominated. Hook is neutral, interesting, and cited in the article. AGF on offline reference. I edited the hook slightly (formatting of ship's name); same for image caption. QPQ done. Picture is used in the article, license seems to be fine (PD in the US). Spot checks did not reveal close paraphrasing (Earwig's tool applied). Oceanh (talk) 09:26, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
