The Artiglio was an Italian steamship used as a salvage ship in the early 20th Century. At the time, the ship was the world's most modern salvage vessel. The Artiglio sank as the result of an explosion during a recovery operation on a World War I ship carrying explosives. Name suggested by M. Di Martino.
