Probably the most famous here - "The Vixen" - Iron-clad ship Built 1864 and deliberately sunk to block a channel..
Hmmm.... not entirely sure that is correct. I posted up, amongst other things, images of the Nagato, the first battleship to have 16 inch guns and Japan's flagship on the attack on Pearl Harbour, and the Saratoga, America's third aircraft carrier, at the time of her launch the largest warship on the world and recipient of 7 battle stars for her efforts in the Pacific War.

SS Richard Mongomery in the Thames Estuary near the Isle of Sheppey, still has over 1500 tonnes of high explosive on board
Interesting story behind it for those needing some diversion today.http://www.ssrichardmontgomery.com/images/swalemon...
One of the most haunting sights I have ever seen - the Duke of Lancaster in the Dee Estuary.
