A.E. VICKERY
The Vickery is a three-mast schooner that was built in 1861, and launched under the name of J.B. Penfield in the State of New York. Renamed A.E. Vickery on February 25, 1884, the boat, on its way to the town of Prescott transporting 21 000 bushels of corn hit a rock and sank. The size of the wreck is impressive. You can see several interesting pieces such as the stove on the stern, main mast at the starboard stern, as well as the rudder. Marine life is abundant.

ANNIE FALCONER
The Annie Falconer is an impressive wreck. It lies on silt and rock. The wooden hull is still in good shape. Many objects are lying around and on the boat, including the helm. On the bow, there are two big steel anchors, a rare thing in those days. The weight of the anchors causes pressure on the bow, which is in danger of breaking at any moment. It is not recommended to dive near the remaining anchor because the bow is not solid.Two laminated plates have been placed on the wreck. The white one warns divers that the stern is a danger area. The second one is in black granite and on the port side. Although difficult to read, it talks about the history of the boat.

CITY OF SHEBOYGAN
Discovered by three divers in 1963, the Sheboygan is a three-mast schooner, which got caught in a storm in September 1915. The stern was letting water in and could not resist the storm. The Sheboygan sank with its captain, his wife, three crewmen, and two dogs. The boat was loaded with 500 tons of coal. The wreck is well preserved although some important parts are missing, such as the helm and the anchor. The three masts are down, but the ropes are still on them. You can see the boiler on the bow. A part of its cargo is still on board. A plate near the bow gives a brief history of the wreck.

COMET
Such a sad story! Built in Portsmouth, Ontario, in 1848, the Comet had its first accident when it hit a shoal in the St. Lawrence River and sank. Re-floated, repaired and in service once again it had its second accident in November 1849, near Toronto, a steam pipe exploded killing two persons, badly wounding another. The third accident killed eight persons when the boiler exploded at Oswego in 1851. The boat sank and was once more re-floated, repaired and put into service again - renamed the Mayflower. It took back its original name, the Comet, in 1854. Finally, on May 15, 1861, it collided with the
American schooner Exchange and sank taking with it two members of the crew. Six divers found the wreck in October 1967, after searching for it for 5 years. Several parts were removed and given to the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes in Kingston. As some of the best preserved parts of this wreck, the two paddlewheels give all the charm to this dive. Their size is impressive, around 25 feet in diameter. The bow and the stern have collapsed. Below the deck, you can see both boilers still in their place. The funnel lies at starboard in the centre of the boat. There is a lot of rubble at the starboard of the ship, especially farming tools. For equipped, well trained, and competent divers, a limited penetration under the rear deck is possible to see the motors and the boilers.

CONESTOGA
The steamer Conestoga was built by Quale & Son of Cleveland for Anchor Line and launched July 6, 1878. The upper portion of the steeple engine protrudes above the river, marking the site. The bow is upstream and near shore with the vessel angled out into the river. She sank on May 22, 1922 outside Lock 28 of the Old Galop Canal, one mile east of Cardinal, Ontario. A fire broke out in the engine room while awaiting passage at the lock. The ship was flushed from the Lock and allowed to ground and sink in her present position.

EASTCLIFF HALL
On July 14, 1970, the Eastcliffe, with a cargo of "pig iron", struck a shoal at 4 a.m. and sank within minutes with the loss of 9 lives, however there were12 survivors. The forward superstructure (upstream) has been dynamited back into the forward hold to clear the site as a navigational hazard. The bow faces the current. The two propellers were removed soon after the wreckage. Precaution should to be taken because there are many intertwined pieces of metal lying at the bottom near the stern. It is possible for experienced and well-equipped divers to penetrate at the bow and at the stern. Though the surface currents are quick, it becomes less on the wrecks deck and the open holds provide shielding from the currents.

EMPRESS OF IRELAND
On the morning of May 28, 1914, the Empress of Ireland leaves the port of Quebec with 1477 passengers aboard. Early in the night, in thick fog, off Sainte-Luce, the Storstad, a coal ship, collides with the passenger ship. In less then 15 minutes, the Empress of Ireland sank taking with it 1012 passengers. Only 5 of the 40 lifeboats were put in the water. It is the biggest tragedy of the marine history of Canada.

FRED MERCUR
Built in Buffalo, the Fred Mercur sailed under the British flag until its sale to Canadians in 1919. A fire destroyed the Fred Mercur. A villager with his canoe saved the entire crew. The stern is only a few feet below the surface and its bow at around 45 feet deep. A big part of the wreck detached itself and lies at 30 feet near the propeller. The hull is still intact and contains the coal. In 1984, a merchant ship did a lot of damage to the stern by throwing its anchor on it. A wall of clay runs along a part of the wreck where eels find refuge.

GEORGE A. MARSH
The George A. Marsh is a three-mast schooner was used to transport various cargoes until it was sold in 1914. The new owners used it to carry coal. Early in the morning of August 8, 1917, the Marsh was caught in a storm, loaded with coal for the hospital in Kingston. Around midnight, the Marsh, leaking more and more, started to sink. Captain Smith, his wife and their five children, a deckman, a sailor, his wife, baby, and their young nephew died during the ship wreck. The only survivors were the captain's brother and a deckman. The wreck was found in October 1967 by three divers. The Marsh has kept very well. Contrary to many other wrecks, the bowsprit is almost perfect, complete with its chains still in place. The stern is also in excellent condition.

HENRY C. DARYAW
This 219 ft. x 35 ft. x 13 ft. steel freighter built in France in 1919 suffered an unforgiving gash on her starboard side running over a shoal. The bow area has a number of items of interest to divers and many enjoy a visit up to the keel of the Daryaw and do a "keel walk". This area lets you view the gash in her bottom that sent her to her fate. Upon arrival, immediately notice the size of the two propellers. The Dariaw is upside down; therefore, most of the dive is done under the wreck, going through the three holds. It is always possible to come out of the wreck from the right or the left where the exits are always visible.
The hold near the bow is about sixty feet deep. A rope starts near the propellers and is attached at the third of the boat. Once in front of the wreck, it is possible to come back on top of the wreck and to go down with the current to the rope. In the front, there is a very small entrance to go in, if the diver has the equipment, the training, and the necessary experience. Another hole leads to the engine room and the flight deck.

ISLANDER
As well as a regular mail carrier between Clayton and Alexandria Bay, the islander began island and river tours in July 1893. The Islander burnt while at dock at Alexandria Bay. The Islander is located just off the shoreline at Alexandria Bay. She is angled slightly upstream with a very slight current, which makes this a pleasurable dive. The stern is in 15 ft. of water with the bow in about 60 ft. The best access is to park in the town parking lot in front of the pavilion, just west of the hospital.

J.B. KING
The "King" was a 140 ft. wooden drill barge owned by John P. Porter and sons of St. Catherines. She was engaged in drilling and blasting to deepen the "narrows" to 27 ft. when she was struck by lightening and exploded June 26, 1930. U.S. Revenue Cutter "Succor" (CG 211) was patrolling nearby and heard the explosion and racing to the scene recovered 10 of the toal 11 that survived out of a total 43 that had been on board.

KEYSTORM
The Keystorm has a rather short story. Built in England in 1910 for a Montreal company, the boat was sailing through thick fog when it hit a shoal. The pumps were immediately operated in order to delay as much as possible the time of shipwreck. It took 5 hours to sink, which gave enough time for all the crew to evacuate. The Keystorm is still in good condition. It lies on its starboard side, the bow is at around 25 feet deep and the stern is at around 100 feet deep. The flight deck lies in less than 60 feet and below this depth are the holds and the engine room. The propeller is completely at the bottom in 115 feet of water.

KINGSHORN
In 1897, the tugboat Hiram A. Walker, under the orders of Captain Boyd, had to tug 7 barges loaded with coal. The Kingshorn was among these. Following a storm, Captain Boyd finished his "very bad day" by losing 4 of his 7 barges, including the Kingshorn. Divers found the wreck in 1995. Lying in 95 feet of water, the Kingshorn is made of a hull without a superstructure. There are several openings on the top deck. You can still see the wheel, windlass, pumps in the holds, stove and rudder. Considering the depth of the wreck, it is necessary to plan the bottom time. It is possible to enter in the hulls, but with adequate finning technique in order not to raise the bottom sediments.

LILLIE PARSONS
A 2 masted "Fore and Aft" rigged centerboard schooner built in Tonawanda N.Y. in 1868, she was sailing with 500 tons of coal destined for Brockville when on August 5, 1877, a sudden squall shifted her cargo and pinned her against an island, capsizing and sinking her. The large rudder sits proudly upstream with a broad square stern resting on the rock ledges that support her. The masts jut from beneath her and run out into the channel, while a visit to the vessels bottom shows the drop center board secured in the casing mid-ship. Accessing the site from the corner of Sparrow Island at the anchor on shore, one can follow the chain to the bow or swim into the current and down the island contour to follow the island profile upstream to the rudder. The wreck was found on August 6, 1963 by 6 divers.
With enough competence, training and equipment, you can enter the wreck through the stern. A lamp is absolutely necessary for those who wish to enter the wreck. The current is usually pretty strong on the Lillie Parson, especially the first thirty feet.

LOBLAWS
This wooden hull sits off Ogdensburg's waterfront at about a 52 ft. depth with a noticable current. Lying with the current, the vessel is about 130 ft. x 24 ft. x 8 ft. with some decking remaining, however no rudder or "bow spirit". Sea and Sky Scuba Shop of Prescott and Save Our Shipwrecks try to keep the site buoyed. Visits to this wreck are by boat. It appears burnt to the water line, however, it sits about 8 ft. high on a firm clay/silt bottom. This site is about halfway between the site of the Rothesay and the Canadian Coast Guard Station directly in front of the large brick chimney on the Ogdensburg shore and south of the downstream channel water line.

MORRISON’S QUARRY
Morrison’s Quarry, located off of highway 105 in Wakefield, Quebec is on of the region’s most popular scuba training sites. It is also a very popular campground and home to concerts and festivals in the summer months. The blue/green water of the quarry reaches a maximum depth of 139 ft. with visibility of about 25 ft. in the summer to over 100 ft in the spring/fall. There are two (2) distinct thermoclines that bring the temperature to 4-5 degrees at the bottom, no matter how hot it is outside.
Winding downwards along the perimeter is the old access road, acting like gigantic steps that spiral down to the bottom. There is a plane at 35 ft and tugboat at 60 ft. both purposely scuttled to provide interest for divers. There are also two cars – one driven over the edge during the shooting of a movie action sequence and the other one driven over the edge by some bone-head car thieves. There is a dive fee with certification card and liability waiver required.

MUNSON
On April 30, 1890, the barge Munson, based at Belleville, had just completed in Kingston its job of launching the Minnedosa. When leaving for Belleville, towed by the Emma Munson, the barge started to leak and quickly sank in Lake Ontario. The Munson is a two-level wooden barge with three pillars that measure up to 60 feet. Its shovel at one end is one of the nice attrations of this wreck. After a bit longer than a century under water, it is still in pretty good shape. This site is well known for the many objects around on the ground. Tools, cuttlery, a stove, tiles, a utensils collection, an electric generator and a work bench are among these.

MUSCALLONGE
Originally the steamer Vigilant, she was launched at Port Huron, Michigan April 23, 1896. She was renamed Muscallonge and it was while towing the barge Hudson (cargo crude oil) from Montreal to Toronto August 15, 1936, she caught fire while approaching Brockville. Attempts to have a fire pumper come to the rescue failed as the Muscallonge burned then exploded when the fuel tanks caught fire. During its years of operation, the Muskie was know as the largest tug boat on the Saint. Lawrence. It is easy to see that the Muskie perished because of a fire. There is only a small part left. However, the boiler and the engines are still visible. The abundant marine life is one of this wreck's charms.

POWER HOUSE
The Power House is a hydroelectric plant built in less than a year at the beginning of the century. It used to generate electricity for the city of Mille Roches and its surroundings. In operation until 1955, it was partially demolished in 1958 and flooded to make way for the Saint.Lawrence seaway. The Power House offer three possible types of diving. The screens are at about 35 feet under water, the floor and the turbines are about 60 feet deep, and the turbine exits at about 75 feet deep. The divers with the right equipment, training and experience can explore at several places of the Power House.

ROBERT GASKIN
Originally a three masted wooden barque, she was launched at Kingston, Ontario on April 21, 1863 as a 132.6 ft. x 26.3 ft. x 11.3 ft. with a cargo capacity of 20,000 bushels. In 1889, the Gaskin was being used as a salvage barge to help salvage the railroad ferry Armstrong that had sunk. During this process, the Gaskin had been sunk three times, with the third time being the final time. A large anchor is located off the bow towards shore about 40 ft. from the Gaskin and adds to the site. Almost a must for visiting divers, the Roberg Gaskin sits a half mile downstream from the Brockville waterfront and river focal point, Blockhouse Island and lies perpendicular to the current at a 55 ft. depth at the bow and 70 ft. at the stern which sticks out towards the channel and shipping lane.

ROTHESAY
Launched February 2, 1867 at St. John New Brunswick this twin side-wheeler was relocated to service in the Montreal to Prescott run where she met her fate September 2, 1889 by colliding with the American tug "Myra". In 1901 a group from the Royal Military College, Kingston used this wreck for explosives practice which flattened her mid section, though stern and bow remain relatively intact. The rope from shore meets the Rothesay about the midsection near the paddlewheels where you can still view the rocker arm.
The bottom here is firm with weed growth between the Rothesay and the shore, however the site has little current and remains an enjoyable visit. One of Eastern Ontario's most famous wreck sites, Rothesay lies at the west edge of Prescott, Ontario, south side of HIghway #2. A park/picnic area and staircase to the river's edge leads you to a shore entry to follow the rope system to the site.

ROY A. JODREY
The Roy A. Jodrey was built in 1965 for the Canadian Algoma Central Railway. The boat was loaded with 20 000 tons of steel that was supposed to be delivered to the city of Detroit. On November 20, 1974, the ship hit a shoal in the Alexandria Bay that left such a tear in its keel that the boat rolled over on itself and sank in less than four hours. All 29 crewmembers survived The first thing that strikes the diver at each dive on this wreck is the titanic size. The Jodrey is still in very good shape mostly because of its depth, which limits traffic and discourages thieves. The main deck is at 200 feet. At the centre of the wreck, we can see a fracture in the hull. On the bow, the tear from the collision with the shallow and other damages caused by the sliding along a cliff are visible. The Jodrey is located where navigation is important. The current is also remarkable there.

WEE HAWK (Kitty Hawk)
The Wee Hawk was mistakenly called the Kitty Hawk and is not an attractive dive site and penetration should not be practiced without considerable training and experience. The silt inside churns up very easily and visibility is very poor. Diver access into the water is at the closed lock gate just east of the wreck. Near lock 28, this site has become a great picnic area and has many attributes dive training sites need. This wreck is accessed off Highway #2 just 1/2 mile west of Cardinal, Ontario. This hull sits just west of lock 28 just upstream 1/4 mile from the Conestoga.

WOLFF ISLANDER II
Built during the war, the Wolfe Islander II was meant to be given as a gift to China from the Canadian government. When China became communist, Canada decided to keep the Wolfe in Canada. It was used for almost 30 years as a ferry between Kingston and Wolf Island. It could carry up to 164 cars. The ferry was then sunk as an artificial reef, for the pleasure of divers. The wreck of the Wolfe Islander has much to offer. The boat was modified to make it safer for the divers. The doors were removed and all potential dangers were corrected. Don't be surprised to find on the deck a motorcycle, golf balls, jokes, etc.
The diving is relatively easy because of the absence of current, the depth, and the state of the wreck. The Wolf is therefore a choice site for the diver who wishes to try a new piece of equipment or to practice a special type of diving.
