Overview

Shipwreck City Data

This target has been classified as man-made debris, resting in 40 feet of water. No overall dimensions are currently recorded for the target. The site consists of a dispersed debris field with several larger objects and smaller material resting across the lakebed. Visible features include a large timber with rope and several metal attachments along one edge, multiple tires, and additional unidentified debris. A larger bent structural section, which appears to be either wood or metal, is also visible with two white circular objects attached to outer body. This section may represent part of a vessel structure, though we are unable to determine its original function. While several objects within the debris field could be associated with a vessel, there is currently not enough evidence to classify the site as a shipwreck.
