The Titanic's propellors were set above the bottom of the ship, hence if the ship were on flat ground the propellors would not be "buried".

With regard to scrapping, I said "who knows what they do BEFORE" scrapping a ship. Your clever idea about the propellors not moving after "gutting" the ship and removing engines is very insightful. But before scrapping begins they must get the ship in shallow water somehow, which brings us to the moving propellors.

But like I said, I'm no ship expert. Hell, I'm not even sure what a "keel" is. But judging from the Titanic model sitting here, the scene in 'Crusade' IS possible.
