The wreck of the infamous 'hell ship' Montevideo Maru has been located by an Australian expedition. Thankfully, she is deeper than the wreck of the RMS Titanic, so she's safe from salvagers.

I don't think it's right to call that ship an "hell ship". It was an prison ship, sunken by an US submarine, that was apparently not aware of it being an prison ship.
