FB Gardner

3D ModelNoAI

The 177 ft F.B. Gardner was built as a brigantine in 1855 but later converted to a schooner barge. It was being towed in 1904 when it caught fire, burned, and sank near Port Sanilac. It was later dynamited as a hazard to shipping. Today it sits in 55 ft of water in the Sanilac Shores Preserve. The model was created from 1,564 30-megapixel images shot on a single DPV dive by Ken Merryman with support from Thom Hadfield.
