Tennie & Laura video

[SDAnderson]

John Janzen has posted a new video on YouTube shot on the Tennie & Laura in September 2009.

The T&L was a small schooner built in the 1870's that sank in 1903 during a storm off the coast of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Only rediscovered a decade ago, today she is located upright on the bottom of Lake Michigan in 300+ feet of water with one of her masts and rigging still standing.

Thanks for the video. It brings back good memories and sad ones. I dove this wreck with Bill Prince and Phil Patz shortly after she was discovered. On that dive, we found the name board to positively establish her identity. Now, Bill and Phil are no longer with us.
