Dang, I just got done with a search on this & nada, so it looks like I get to spring a post on the topic.
Better yet, here's one of the articles: ON LAKE MICHIGAN NEAR POVERTY ISLAND, Mich.: Diving into the search for lost 17th-century ship - Nation Wires - MiamiHerald.com

There are a few more articles about the current activity, a google will turn some more reading material up.

Here's a page from a local outfit that had several articles on it: Search Results : About : UpNorthLive.com

The guy mentioned has been frequenting the area for 20 - 30 years looking for the legendary "Poverty Island Gold"; this specific location was where the Capt. Lawrence supposedly sank, so there's some speculation about just what's cooking here.
Should be fun to watch, at any rate.
