We had the opportunity to dive the Henry Clay last weekend my friends and me. She was lost on her maiden voyage in 1831 , trying to reach the entrance of the original welland cannel she foundered and now sits upright in 110 feet of fresh Lake Ontario water, she is buoyed and vis was a whopping 50' very dark on the way down though but tough it out and the eyes adjust and the ambient light kicks in and it is a nice step back in time , she was steered by a tiller no wheel and is about 80-90 feet long , about 12-15 feet of relief . If ya can check it out it is off Port Dalousie about 3-4 miles..........
