Created by Billingd (talk) and Euryalus (talk). Nominated by Euryalus (talk) at 03:44, 5 October 2015 (UTC).
Article is new, long enough, nominated within the time limit and meets Wikipedia core policies. The Base hook, which I prefer, hook is interesting and well within the maximum size limit. It is neutral and has inline citations for sources. The image is from Wikipedia Commons and is indicated as in the public domain. The CopyVio tool located no serious close paraphrase about the presence of the subject's wife aboard the ship. I think it is too minor to affect the review. I approve passing this DYK.

Thanks for the review and for passing the DYK. Interested in which bit is the close paraphrase, as I'll go back and change it if you prefer. -- Euryalus (talk) 05:25, 5 October 2015 (UTC)Never mind, found it. Agree it was minor but have rewritten the sentence anyway. Thanks again.-- Euryalus (talk) 06:17, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
