Default Wreck in S.W. corner of Wolfboro Bay

Found this is June. Dove it w/Senter Cove Guy earlier this year-that's him in the clip. I tried to adjust video settings for a better image.

Wreck is substantial in size and in only about 26 feet of water. Large deep hold and large swept fantail strongly suggest it's a steamer. The bow stands at least 6 feet off the bottom. Overall about 35 feet long. Yet again there is no name I could find on it.

This is one of 3 wrecks in this immediate area I found during the same sonar scan, all about 150 feet apart. One is a large dory-like vessel that can be seen in the sonar image and the other is also very old about 25 feet long with what appears to be another McDuff engine still on board, but that is off the sonar screen.

This wreck is shown in the left channel in the attached sonar shot and the large dory-like vessel is in the right channel. 3rd wreck not shown.
