: Congratulations!
: What about this potential national historic significance? Care to elaborate on that? As Ross said, how about depth & zebra report? Will this wreck be made public or kept under wraps, we all know how NOAA can be with a potential national historic significant wreck.... How about a little more description of the wreck also, figurehead? Wheel? anchors? deadeyes, pins, blocks everywhere?
: Just looking to learn more...
: Thankyou
: Craig
:The Spangler has been listed by NOAA as having been one of the few vessels to have gone from freshwater to saltwater. The year was reported as 1859.
Although not covering the entire wreck, there are zebra mussels present. There is no figurehead on the wreck. There wreck is entirely intact with all the usual items present.
At this time I am not releasing the exact location or depth of the wreck.
Thanks,
Stan
