April 12, 2005 H istoric Shipwrecks in the Gulf of Mexico Part of the mission of the MMS is to ensure that significant archaeological sites are not adversely affected by oil and gas exploration and development. This responsibility often includes the protection of historic shipwrecks. Historical research conducted for MMS studies 89-0023, 89-0024, and 89-0025 indicates that over 400 ships have sunk on the Federal OCS dating from 1625 to 1951; thousands more have sunk closer to shore in state waters during the same period. Only a handful of these have been scientifically excavated by archaeologists for the benefit of generations to come. In several cases, the MMS has partnered with state and Federal agencies conducting this research. The work conducted by the MMS and other scientists in the Gulf of Mexico contributes to our understanding of how our Nation developed by studying the technology that fostered the growth of the United States.

The real allure for many shipwreck divers and historians is the fact that many shipwrecks are mysteries. Many are still missing and awaiting discovery. Some, like the Lizzie D are located and identified, but the story of the sinking is a mystery. Others are unidentified and are awaiting final identification. Divers reading this section will be transported back in time and relive the history of past disasters and sinkings of various wrecks that represent the most popular dived shipwrecks found off the shores of Long Island, New York and New Jersey, but will not be limited to these areas. In time we hope to include many of the predominant shipwrecks found along the Eastern Coastline.

Sitemap Membership eCards Shop Minnesota's Historic Shipwrecks
The cold fresh water of Minnesota’s lakes and rivers have preserved an important part of our history - in shipwrecks! Each one is a unique and integral part of the fabric of America's maritime heritage. Together, they provide physical contact with and offer an exciting opportunity to explore the past. Because they represent a valuable but finite and nonrenewable resource, we must provide for their protection and preservation. If we don't, the first generation to have ready access to shipwrecks will be the last to enjoy them. In the interest of preserving Minnesota's Lake Superior shipwrecks and other underwater archaeological sites in Minnesota’s lakes and rivers, the State Historic Preservation Office of the Minnesota Historical Society has initiated a program of submerged cultural resource management. The Society hopes you will join its effort to preserve our maritime heritage.

Researching Shipwrecks Two of the most requested publications of this office have been "Principal Marine Disasters" and "U.S. Merchant Ship Losses". The value of both lists, however, has been greatly exaggerated. The former was a list taken from a standard World Almanac while the latter was a list of American merchant ships that were lost during World War II. In most cases, exact positions of the merchant ships were not known or were approximated. Entries such as, "lost in North Atlantic" were not uncommon. Essentially then these lists are of little use to the serious diver. The following is a list of sources that have some information related to sunken vessels. Also please find a list of books that have been written about shipwrecks. The subject has been well-documented and these sources may provide valuable research materials.

    Surf, sand and shipwrecks
    By James Carroll Published: March 13, 2008 document.writeln(''); E-Mail Article Listen to Article Printer-Friendly 3-Column Format Translate Share Article Text Size WELLFLEET, Massachusetts I drove alone to the ocean the other day, aiming to take a solitary walk on the winter beach. Oh, for that rare frame of mind engendered by raw wind, spray, the crunch of half-frozen sand underfoot - rank loneliness of the deserted strand. The interior seascape to which such brooding melancholy opens relieves the claustrophobia of rushed life in the city. At the crest of the dune where the parking lot dropped off to the beach, a couple of women were just climbing up. I made my inquiry with a simple gesture of hands, and one of them wordlessly pointed south. There, several hundred yards down the beach, a knot of people stood together between the breaking waves and the sharp cliff of sandy clay. I set off to join them. Late in January, the sea had tossed the skeletal remains of what was probably a 19th-century schooner up onto the beach. The hull was remarkably intact. The ocean depths had lovingly preserved the wood and its form, and now the sand seemed a resting place - as if nature was giving the ancient vessel a respite in the sun from the briny dark.

http://www.tcmuseum.org/shipwrecks/
Home Archaeology Astrolabe Newsletter Become A Museum Member ... Trustees Search Go Shipwrecks One estimate is that there are over 1000 Shipwrecks in the waters of the Turks and Caicos Islands. What we know about most of them are cryptic mentions in obscure records, details in shipping records, records taken at the time of Hurricanes, and so on.
Only two Shipwrecks in the Waters of the Turks and Caicos Islands have been properly recorded. These are the Molasses Reef Shipwreck and the Endymion.
So what about the rest of the wrecks?
The Turks and Caicos Islands Government, along with the Department of Environment and Coastal Resources, The National Trust and the National Museum are given the task to protect the wrecks and to prohibit any work that will ruin or corrupt the site and that would limit the potential scientific recovery of the information from the wrecks at a later date.
Are there any Treasure Ships?
Yes, but not in the commonly held sense. The Museum sees all wrecks as "treasure" ships but the treasure is not gold or silver: it does not have a financial value. What we see as treasure is the information that we can retrieve from the wreck, and in most cases, through historical document research and limited survey we gain this information.
We must add here that there are few true "treasure ships". In most cases hunts for these ships are fruitless and expensive. The Museum along with many international organisations believes that searching for "treasure ships" takes away from the real search - that of recovering information. A ship that sank whilst trading salt is just as important as a ship carrying gold!
