  The Daniel Lyons The Island City
  The Francis Hinton The Milwaukee
  The America The St. Albans
  The Continental The EMBA
  The Pathfinder The Appomattox
  The Rouse Simmons The Edward E. Gillen
  The Vernon The Sumatra
  The S.C. Baldwin The Prins Willam V
  The Henry Gust The Transfer
  The Home The Hiram R. Bond
  The Floretta The Norland
  The McMullen & Pitz The No. 6 Dredge
  The Walter B. Allen The Grace A. Channon
  The Silver Lake The Sebastopol
  The Selah Chamberlain The Volunteer
  The Helvetia The Lumberman
  The Phoenix The Kate Kelly
  The Hetty Taylor The Evra Fuller
  The Advance The Merchant
  The Atlanta The Rosinco
  The Byron The Wisconsin
  The Niagara The Seabird
  The Toledo The Lady Elgin
  The Northerner The St. Mary
  The Tennie & Laura The Straits Of Mackinac

We’ve completed shooting video of close to half of these wrecks and every year continue to shoot more. As more wrecks are found we add them to the list. There are a few not listed here, but as we complete (or at least have a good handle on) the research, we will post them on the site also. The Milwaukee Carferry information will give you a good idea of the direction we are going.
