What's the difference between a cruiser, a destroyer, a frigate, and a littoral combat ship?

This is meant to be a general overview of each of these ships and their capabilities, not looking at specific information such as size and armament (which can easily be found online, if you want specific facts about each ship).  Littoral Combat Ship (LCS):  One of the newest types of ships, made up of the Freedom and Independence Classes with only 3 ships in service. LCS's are very small, versatile ships that were created with the aim of extending the Navy's capabilities closer to the shore. LCS's are made to operate in shallower water than most USN platforms and have different modules that can be swapped in and out depending on the mission requirements.  Cruiser (CG):  Cruisers are now becoming less and less relevant, with only 22 left in the Ticonderoga-Class.

Truck submerged in Marlborough after boating mishap at Waikawa Bay boat ramp

A boating nightmare has become a reality at Waikawa Bay, near Picton, after a truck was dragged into the water by a boat. Nelson resident Steve Badham came across the sunken truck as he came into Waikawa Bay after a fishing trip on Sunday afternoon.  "I just saw it and I thought, 'oh no'. "It's your worst nightmare when you've got a boat for that to happen." He was told the truck started slipping on the boat ramp and jumped out of gear before the trailer jack-knifed.  Both the truck and the boat ended up in the water. The owner had just repainted the truck, while the boat and trailer had been sold to new owners, Badham said. "He was pretty upset because he didn't know what the condition of the trailer was like.  "It's certainly not a pleasant thing to happen."  The truck was blocking one of three bays at the Waikawa Bay boat ramp, which made maneuvering difficult for other boats com...
