Like the Mary Rose, the vanity of the ruling classes caused it's downfall (having too many cannons in this case). Only unlike the Mary Rose it is a full-size ship, very well-preserved and impressive. You will take one look at it's top-heavy shape and wonder how they thought it would ever float. It lasted about two minutes, taking many innocent lives down with it.
