New? Steam boat wreck?
7 Attachment(s)
Short and sweet-Found a steam boat wreck last year on side-scan. Not on any charts.
Dove it April 2009; Wooden-of course; 6 foot high keel line at the bow from the mud to the top-no names to be found; 12" on-center gunwhale ribs; 42 feet long overall; Large drive shaft sticking out into the water column at 45 degrees. Rudder maybe 15" x 30"; Engine missing; Classic sharp bow with rounded, semi-circular stern perhaps ten feet long all-around. Image #1 may not load-too large; Enjoy. |
Location
Are you willing to provide location? Or PM? I'm sure there are several divers that would like to check it out. There are some good researcher among us as well.

Nice Find
Very nice and shallow depth. With drive shaft and no engine, would appear to be a scuttle job.

New steamboat wreck Lat/Lon
Bubba,
Re: Lat/Lon, yes I can provide them to you. Have one other adjacent wreck to check out first nearby; I will give you both sets of coordinates. Send me a private email or whatever it is that needs to be done to connect here on Winni.com; After that we should communicate via personal email addresses. |
Looking foward
