Haven't seen many wrecks, but I really liked the Eastcliffe Hall.
Some info:
The wreck of the Eastcliffe Hall is located approximately 3/4 mile off Crysler Marina, in front of Upper Canada Village, and is only accessible by boat.
This 3335 ton and 343 ft steel freighter lies upright in approximately 70 ft depth. The deck is at about 40 ft depth and remains spectacular. The cargo holds offer protection from the current and are an easy penetration around the 50 ft mark.
At 4 a.m. on July 14th, 1970, with a cargo of "pig iron", the Eastcliffe Hall struck a shoal and sank within minutes with 9 loss and 12 survivors recovered from the masts and hatch covers that
saved them. Life boats were not able to be lowered due to the list and quickness of the sinking vessel. Capt Albert Groulx and his 16 year old son were among the lost crew.
The forward superstructure (upstream) has been dynamited back into the forward hold to clear the site as a navigational hazard. Though the surface current is quick, it becomes less on the wreck deck and the open holds provide additional shielding from the current. Normally, visibility is good and with your visit to the holds you will see the pilothouse, masts, living quarters as well as iron ingots that remain from the original cargo.
To observe this wreck, we recommend a lamp because several parts are hidden from natural light. A strong current makes the descent a little difficult, but once on the site, it is comfortable. Precautions need to be taken because several metal pieces are lying around since the blasting.
The seaway being close, merchant ships and pleasure boats create heavy traffic near the wreck.
Like all the other wrecks in Ontario, the Eastcliff Hall is a property of the province, and it is strictly forbidden to remove any object.
One of the top ten dives in the St-Lawrence River.
