Deep Shipwrecks of Lake Ontario             

A trilogy of shipwreck discoveries.  Each of the shipwrecks in this presentation were discovered in the deep waters of Lake Ontario from 360 feet to nearly 700 feet.  One of these ships, a rare recently discovered “dagger-board” schooner, was located off of Oak Orchard, the only such ship of its type to have been found in the Great Lakes.  The foundering of other two ships, over 100 years ago, were found in the areas of Sodus Point and Oswego.
