Hi. The Bannockburn sank on November 22,1902 with the loss of all 22 people on board. It foundered somewhere on Lake Superior(unknown). Its dimensions were 245' x 40'1" x 18'4". 18 months after it sank, the only remains ever found of the steel steamer were found:a lifeboat oar. The ship was built in 1893 in England. It has been dubbed a "Flying Dutchmen" on the Great Lakes because it has been reported afloat several times after she sank. Hope it helps.
