I think we've pretty much blown the tanks on this one - I'll call a winner sometime around Four Bells (cet), so still a chance to vent that last bit of humour

As others have rightly said, the picture is of the M2, which sank with the loss of the entire crew of 60, and only two bodies were ever recovered.

The wreck is designated as a "protected place",and I had the good fortune to dive the site some years back. She sits in about 30-35m of water, so technically not a difficult dive (well, until the tide starts running) but one that I found fascinating and was surprised at the good condition of the hull and tower after some 75 years down there.
