short and simple, mk? so, here is what I'v herd: So, on November 10, 1975, the fitz sailed right into a storm. Also known as "the 3 sisters" with its from the ojibway, native spirits. Anyway, The Aurther M. Anderson [i tink that how you spell it] was trailing 15 miles behind the Fitz. But survived the storm. So its belived that "the Gales Of November" had taken over the fitz by its 50 foot waves craching over the decks.
