For another on the list of 'pretty unknown shipwrecks' we come to the cruiser, Jintsu. This Japanese light cruiser was sunk in 1943, and her wreck was found in 2019. With how stacked that year was for shipwrecks, I'm not surprised Jintsu's fell a bit by the wayside.

It's a shame, though, because her wreck is quite well preserved. Especially by Japanese standards. Another Indianapolis or Hornet this is not, but the wreck is still in good shape.

Damage aside, of course.
