No, it is the Zebulon Pike or actually the General. It is a ship wreck. Actually, it was a faux paddle wheeler used as a entertainment venue and dock facility for cruises on the lake. The best story I have on it is that it broke loose in a storm and lodged itself near its current resting place near Indian Point. The Corps of Engineers that lords over the lake did not like that one bit and requested the wreckage be cleaned up. In an attempt to refloat and move the (General) to make all parties happy, it instead sank to the dismay of all and the joy of local divers. Penetration is possible in what I call the "engine" area and then swim up on the main floor through what appears to be a bar area and then up a flight of stairs to the observation deck where fake smoke stacks were set and of which one has fallen over last I was there.
I believe this to be the real Zebulon Pike, that was tied up to the faux paddle wheeler for lake cruises after proper inebriation and perhaps some appetizers on said structure before and after cruising.
