The Saga of the Anegada Island Shipwrecks by Tage W. Blytmann From time to time I have been contributing manuscripts and research material to The Maritime Historical Research Society . Among these are the annotated lists of shipwrecks on Anegada Island, British Virgin Islands, presented here. While the Society has been involved in a number of activities connected with maritime history over the years, it is probably the underwater shipwreck activities on Anegada that has drawn the greatest interest, especially among individuals familiar with the treacherous reefs associated with that island. I am therefore including a selection of photographs, maps and miscellany illustrating the underwater diving activities; some of the salvaged articles, and a small selection of 17th and 18th century charts of the Virgin Islands and Anegada Island.. Loosely translated from Spanish, Anegada means "the drowned island"; the highest point on the island being only 30 feet above sea level. Given the location of Anegada, close to a major north-south shipping lane, and with extensive reefs extending all around the island and up to about 11 miles seaward towards the southeast, it's no wonder it has claimed so many unwary and unfortunate mariners. The earliest recorded wreck that I have been able to document was a Spanish vessel wrecked on Anegada in 1523. The most recent wreck included in the list is that of the Spanish steamer IDA wrecked New Years Eve, 1898/99. I have not included any wrecks from the 20th century since most of these can easily be researched, or are already well documented elsewhere.

The War of 1812-Era Shipwrecks of Lake Champlain (click on image for full-size picture) Growler and Eagle , were captured in early 1813 when they incautiously ventured into the British-controlled Richelieu River. The British used them to raid ports and shipping on the lake in late July. During the winter of 1813-1814, Macdonough began the construction of a bigger squadron here at Vergennes, Vermont, several miles up the Otter Creek from Lake Champlain. Vergennes had an iron foundry that could supply spikes, bolts, and shot, water-powered sawmills, and the surrounding forests were filled with white oak and pine for ship timber. The Navy Department hired New York shipwright Noah Brown to direct the building. Saratoga , in just 40 days. Brown and Macdonough also commandeered an unfinished steamboat and completed it as the 17-gun schooner Ticonderoga Finally, Brown built six 75-foot-long (22.86 m) row galleys or gunboats, each rigged with two lateen sails and armed with two cannon. Macdonough commanded the lake through the summer of 1814, but word that the British were building a frigate at Isle aux Noix led to the construction of one additional warship for the U.S. Navy squadron. On July 23 two hundred shipwrights under the direction of Adam Brown (brother of Noah) laid the keel for a 20-gun brig at Vergennes.

It also provides maps and charts of the area, and detailed information on locating and diving on wrecks. The waters along the New England coast are beautiful but treacherous. Over the years, rocky shoals, storms and fog have claimed many vessels. Some are sunk in deep water, while others can be found near shore and even on the beaches. Some ships didn't even have to sink to become wrecks. Rhode Island and Connecticut Shipwreck Book Shipwrecks of Rhode Island and Connecticut

Some people are making hobbies out of finding particular places or objects in the satellite or aerial photos in GE and putting them into collections. Today I was perusing a collection of visible shipwrecks (by visible they mean shipwrecks which are visible in GE). There is a thread of posts at the Google Earth Community which discusses and maintains the collection of visible shipwrecks which is maintained by someone called 'sasroodkapje' from Holland. This collection not only shows the locations of shipwrecks as placemarks, but some of the placemark descriptions contain closeup photos of the shipwrecks seen from the shore, boats, or from planes. In some cases, links to more information are provided as well.

The wreckage has drawn onlookers. (Vincent DeWitt for the Boston Globe/File) Email Print Text size By James Carroll March 10, 2008 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, the weight of news that both centers on war and denies it. The first surprise was that the sprawling parking lot was not empty. Maybe 20 cars clustered at the far end of the asphalt, near the shore. What's this? The weather was cold and overcast, but I knew of no storms recently to kick up a surf that might have drawn rubber-neckers. I pulled into a spot between sport utility vehicles. 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.

New England Shipwreck Diving Since the earliest accounts of French trading ships sinking off the "Mastachusit" shore in the 1600's, thousands of ships have wrecked off the rocky shores of New England. Here, we'll present some of the ones sport divers visit. Massachusetts Board of Underwater Archaeological Resources Exempt Shipwreck List The purpose in creating an exempted shipwreck site is to preserve such sites for the continued enjoyment of the recreational diving community. "Exempted" shipwreck sites have, quite literally been exempted from the Board's permiting process. Recreational diving activities, including casual artifact collection, on these sites does not require a permit from the Board. However, any major disruption of the site is prohibited. The List of Exempt Shipwrecks is open to modification. The recreational diving community is encouraged to protect these sites for the continued enjoyment of all. The following site reports were prepared by Christopher C. Hugo and made available to the MetroWest Dive Club , courtesy of the Massachusetts Board of Underwater Archaeological Resources Dive related information on most of the sites is sketchy, comments from the diving community in this regard would be greatly appreciated

The sunken ships and barges that we dive on are artifacts themselves.

The wax has been turning up on Oregon's north coast in the Nehalem and Manzanita areas for centuries. A find this far south is rare. "From the picture they sent me, that's what it looks like to me, it's definitely beeswax," said Scott Williams of Olympia, assistant state archaeologist for Washington. He leads the Beeswax Wreck Project of volunteers probing why blocks of beeswax have been popping up along the Oregon Coast for centuries. This hunk could have been from the Santo Christo de Burgos, which sank in 1693, or the San Francisco Xavier, which disappeared in 1705. Both were en route from the Philippines to Acapulco, Mexico, with tons of wax. Such discoveries have been traced to the Philippines by the wings of the bees, native to those islands, found in the wax.

(click) SHIPWRECK SECTION KEYS SITES: SAN JOSE 28.53) one of the 1733 Spanish Galleon Fleet that was struck by a hurricane as it struggled up the Florida Coast, off present day Marathon. The San Jose was carrying almost 7 million pesos in gold when she sank, and was salvaged by both Spanish and modern day salvors. Due to the archaic methods of the early, salvors and the scattered remains found by modern salvors, it appears the treasure will never run dry for the weekend potluck hunters of today. The ballast pile is in 35 feet of water but largely covered by sand, although the conditions are usually clear. Most recoveries were made directly S. of the wreck-site, but the area to the N. of the wreck has been largely unexplored, and the backside of the hurricane that hit this fleet (moving west) was driving survivors and remnants of the ship due north. For the pot-hunter, the northern sand patches and areas next to reefs may pay off with recoveries of passenger's personal items. HERRERA - another of the 1733 Galleon Fleet wrecks, this ship is also known as the "figurine" wreck due to the hundreds of animal figurines found on the site. Even though this site has been heavily worked, it still produces figurines for the potluck hunter willing to work the sand patch to the Northeast of the ballast pile. These figurines must be preserved or they will crumble shortly after recovery! Soaking the figurine in distilled water for two years removes the salt, at which time a thinned (with water) layer of Elmers Glue All is applied, after the outside surface dries, to keep the figurine from cracking. Figurines from this wreck are almost 300 years old, please don't bring them up if you're not prepared to preserve them!

It is fittingly located at Whitefish Point, Michigan, site of the oldest active lighthouse on Lake Superior. Explore the Haunting World of Shipwrecks Lake Superior. Deceivingly beautiful, yet the big lake's unrelenting fury has earned her the reputation of being the most treacherous of the Great Lakes. Throughout the museum gallery visitors see dramatic shipwreck legends come to life. Artifacts and exhibits tell stories of sailors and ships who braved the waters of Superior and those who were lost to her menacing waves. The bell of the famous Edmund Fitzgerald is displayed in the museum as a memorial to her lost crew. Whitefish Point marks the critical turning point for all ships entering or leaving the lake. The waters that extend west from Whitefish Point along the 80-mile stretch of rugged shoreline have earned the ominous title, "Lake Superior's Shipwreck Coast."
