just wondering the GPS location on this. Is it located on land as the map shows? or is the GPS location a bit off? Any response would be great. Thanks!

No, not on land. Located about 200 meters off the "rock wall" point at the access of Wellers bay and Lake ontario... about 12 feet deep. In the google map you can actually see a slight shadow of the schooner!
Updated location. Thank you Jeff.
