Anybody have any info on the location of the Sixaola, a passenger/cargo ship sunk by a German U-boat off of Bocas del Toro, Panama in 1942? I stumbled on some very basic info recently but am looking for more historical background. Since I'm in bocas del Toro I thought this might be an interesting hunt.
 
Try this: Sixaola SS WRECK

This site lists general information about the steamer and position, as far as latitude and longitude of the wreck. Also gives a brief description of its history. It's not very thorough, but you may find it useful.
