August 10
Join Kevin Magee for an all day charter with lunch.
CRYSTAL: Depth 120′
The “Crystal” is another of Lake Erie’s mysteries. It’s been told that this 117′ 3 masted schooner was named after the beer the divers that found her celebrated with after their find. She lies upright in 120′ of water and is quite a sight. Visibility on this sight often approaches 100 feet, bottom temperatures in the low 40’s.
TRADEWIND: Depth 120′
Today the Trade Wind is one of the best dives in the range of recreational divers. She sits upright in 120′ of water, her cargo scattered around the wreck. Her three masts have fallen to port, probably due to the damage on her starboard side rigging. The ship’s wheel is in tact, as are much of the ships railings. The anchor rests on the deck at the bow, along with the capstan and other deck gear. There is normally very good visibility at this site, in the range of 30-70′, with bottom temperatures in the low to mid 40’s.
MAJESTIC: Depth 55′
Much of the wood hull of the majestic was consumed by fire. Her huge propeller makes a nice photo backdrop. Look for her exposed engines, scotch boilers, windless, and steering gear.
