I spent a lot of time snorkeling on the wreck that's along the shoreline after Pickerel cove (that I learned about in another thread) and I'm extremely impressed with this. Only this summer have I discovered some of the awesomeness of the lake bottom (an old rowboat in center harbor, a dock before the entrance to salmon cove, this barge).

So my question is...what is the story behind this barge? How old is it? When did it sink? Why did it sink? I'd love to learn more about this!!!
