Shore Diving Superior

[rcojr]

I agree with John J about the wrecks in the Apostles.
They are pretty shallow and for the most part are pretty broken up.
I am someone that believes that ANY shipwreck is worth at least one dive.
Having said that, the Lucerne is a cool dive if you have dived the Ely in Two Harbors. The Ely midsection is intact but the bow and stern are broken up. The Lucerne midsection is broken up while it's bow and stern are intact. You could make one ship out of the two. Between them you can see an entire 200 ft three masted schooner.
The Pretoria is one of the largest wooden ship ever built. It is 337ft. long at a time that most ship builders believed that you couldn't build any ship over 250ft.
It is one of Davidson's Goliaths.
Sometimes learning the history behind these wrecks can make your dives a lot more fun.
Right now all the known wrecks are pretty shallow, but as the GLSPS gets closer to having the Moonlight and Marquette on the National Register, those numbers will be released.
Those wrecks are Technical level wrecks (210 & 240 ft)
But they will defiantly be worth going to the Apostles to dive.

Look at that I finally got over 100 posts not too bad for someone that types with two fingers.
