USS Monitor did not sink beacuse of a torpedo. She sank while heading south, a large storm left her lost at sea on December 31 1862. She was found in 1974, and now is in a marine santuary. She was a 987-ton ship, designed by John Ericsson, a Swedish engineer.

Why did we have information up that said it sunk by a torpedo? Is that a common belief/myth or was it just a bad website?
