Short video-20 foot steamer
 

Vessel as wrecks go is in great shape; At first I questioned if it really was as narrow as the sonar image portrayed-it is. This image was posted a while ago with several other wrecks.

Wow!
 

Thank for sharing this exciting find with us! She looks as though she could be raised and restored. Very excellent stuff. :D

Decent visibility (at least able to see the whole wreck!) cool find!

I'm going to suggest that this boat is Not a Steamer. Not much room for the boiler. The "V" Transom is more suggestive of a boat built around 1915. In this case...with an early gas engine..maybe one cylinder. Steam was going away.

The Steamers usually had a "Fantail" stern: (Sweeping curve around the stern). Can't find a picture just yet.

The Antique Boat Museum in Clayton, NY has as their Logo boat the "Wild Goose" with the "V" transom. It is 40 feet long and 7 feet wide. (1915) She started out with a 150HP Sterling straight 6 cylinder. Currently with a modern V8. :look: NB

I'm probably stating the obvious but I assume this vessel was scuttled being that nothing remains inside except for a large rock.

By the way, I want to give a shout out to Diver1111 for some great posts. Myself not being a diver, I love seeing these videos.

NB I agree now that I look harder at it that it was likely gas powered. I have also seen steamers that don't have the fantail. I was surprised to see the prop still on it.

4 more wrecks found this week-need to dive and film them.
