Last I heard, wood floats...




But you need to not only float but to stay out of the water. How
would you go about doing that? Besides, it sank within 3 hours (~2:45
IIRC). Who would you pull off of manning lifeboats to get all this
stuff? How would you move it from the hold, especially with many of the
decks already flooded? How is all this supposed to happen in the small
time frame?
