Here's a complete Google Earth Fuerteventura Tour

It includes the American Star with photos and links to the webpage about it's history with many photos.

Apparently the ship has now completely disappeared.

Webewitch, as of the date of your post, this ship had not completely vanished.

As of October 2006, there is a major portion of the bow section still above water.

Go here to see the latest pictures. Good aerial shot in good conditions that shows the above water as well as sunken portions of the ship.
