: Does anyone have information of a passenger ferry Grandpa Woo that wrecked on Passage Island off Isle Royal?

There was a pretty good book written about the Grampa Woo wreck a few years ago by an author in Thunder Bay. I have a copy and it describes everything one would want to know about the incident. You can probably get a copy at bookfinder.com by searching for Grampa Woo.

The wreck is no longer there. I was completely removed in the year after the accident. The wreckage was really jagged and hazardous and not at all appropriate for sport divers. There may be some small debris left at the site, but NPS discourages diving at the site. There would really be nothing of signifigance to see anyway.

Hope that helps.
