Yeah the ship definitely broke apart. Obviously the bow was sinking and the weight of the stern was not able to be supported. Like someone above said. It was not designed to stay out of water like that. We could tell also the ship was weak in the aspect that bulkhead between boiler rooms 5 & 6 collapsed. This shows the expansion joints weakened and split. I will say the keel was strong. Was able to pull the stern to a 90 degree angle before breaking away.
