Submarine S-51 went aground t between the Williamsburg bridge and the: Qu ro bridge in the East river, while being towed to the navy yard here. The 8-51 had just passed through what’ were believed to be her major of the journey here, poss: in the deep waters of the sound and loss in the swirling waters of Hell Gate. All seemed to be in order for a speedy and a safe arrival when the undersea boat sud- denly piled up on Ferly Reef Rock, between the two bridges. The S-51 was being towed in tan- dem by the tugs loka and Sagamore. A civilian pilot who had joined the escort during the night was in charge of guiding the flotilla to the navy yard. Second civilian pilot was on the Falcon, lead ship of the convoy. Te Captain W. B. Tomb, commanding the Vestal, said that a buoy which should have designated the Ferly Reef Rock, was iz. Up to three or four minutes before the S-51- went uground the Vestal had been leading the flotilla. he most dangerous part of the -mile trip to the navy yard from the place where the submarine was raised after nine months submersion following its collision last Septem- ber with the steamer City of Rome, was considered by navy officers to be the-area near Execution Rock. This had been safely passed. When the accident occurred. Lieutenant Cam- mander E. P. Sauer, who had piloted the Vestal's course among the danger- ous shoals and reefs, had just lighted a cigarette, saying? “I’ve done my job. I'm sorry I couldn't take her all the way throug! He had brought the S.-51, 135 miles through open seas, fogs, coastwise traffic and other dangers, the longest tow of its kind on recor ant of the New York navy yard,,had left the Faleon, where he had com- plimented the captain and other offi- cers for their skill, and had declared that the navy would be proud to have such a feat to its credit. The ‘ad- miral then went. ashore. the missing Officers said that y and the misguidance of the ivilan pilots were the cause of the grounding.
