The American Diver
Their second ship, the American Diver, did not do much better. Its first and last attack on a Union barricade was a disaster, and it sank in Mobile Bay soon after. The crew survived but to this day the ship has not been found.
One More Try
Fueled by love for their beloved Confederacy, it did not take long for Watson, Hunley and McClintock to learn from their previous mistakes and come up with what they thought was the perfect ship. Two long years later they presented the Hunley to Confederate officers with great pride, and she did not disappoint. She hit her target and the boat exploded like they had hoped. The Hunley was sent to Charleston after that.
