Maybe it's not a ship.

I was watching a historical show this week which was discussing 2 forts opposite of each other on the Hudson River, when we were fighting Britain. One of the defense tactics they used was to sink a number of vessels between the fort to make navigating up the Hudson problematic for the British. The episode predated the estimated date on this ship though.
