3D ModelNoAI

Two mast schooner believe to be the Mary.

Tim and Dennis found a total of four targets in July of 2024. This was the third target that we put the ROV down on in July. This wreck site turned out to be a schooner that has both the masts lying down across her deck. The cabin in the stern has totally collapsed and it has a cargo of coal aboard. There is also a dinghy resting on the lake bottom at the stern of the vessel. Further research done by Ben Ioset Maritime Archaeologist National Marine Sanctuary has found that this wreck is likely the Mary. It was built in 1877 by Georg H. Garner of Thorold, Ontario. The vessel foundered in a storm on November 6, 1905. Its crew of 4 was lost that day. She was 84 feet in length and 20.3 feet in width by 7 feet in depth, 87 tons gross.
