Resting beneath the waves off the shore of Chicago lies a mysterious, unidentified wooden steamer that was intentionally scuttled years ago. Today, the wreck sits upright in just 45 feet of water, making it a highly accessible and relaxed site to visit.
Exploring this unknown vessel offers divers a unique glimpse into local maritime history. The absolute highlight of the dive is the steamer’s massive, intact propeller, which makes for an incredible focal point and a fantastic photo opportunity.
