Bermuda Triangle - Naval History and Heritage Command
Naval History and Heritage Command FAQ on Bermuda Triangle ... to stretch even the farthest flung region of the triangle to include the position of the lost sub.

Another story concerns the loss of the nuclear submarine USS Scorpion in the Devil's Triangle. It is impossible to stretch even the farthest flung region of the triangle to include the position of the lost sub.
Truth is, Scorpion was found by the MSC oceanographic ship USNS Mizar about 400 miles southwest of the Azores, nowhere near the Devil's Triangle. Its loss was attributed to mechanical failure, not some demonic denizen of the deep.

no - and nothing has 'disappeared' there for nearly 50 years (1963 - and that's been blamed on maintenance of the boat)
edit - compare those types of sailing accident with the typical losses that occur all round the world, they're nothing significant, when you're talking about the bermuda triangle what people typically expect you to be talking about is a reputation for losing large vessels, boats that you would never have expected to be lost at sea... oh - and none of those are submarines...
i don't think the loss of a 16ft dayboat, or a 19ft day fishing boat with it's single crew member missing particularly unusual - given they're taking small boats out into the atlantic...

There is a really good documentary by the Discovery Channel on the Bermuda Triangle. Explains it all scientifically
