Re: Wreck found off Portwashinton,Wi - divbum - 08-29-2005
This wreck had quite of bit of disscusion at Ghost Ships last year, so I sent out an email this morning to get a slight clarification. Â Apearrently it was first discovered in 1999 By Paul Ehorn and Butch Klopp, then recently (1-2 years ago) by Brendon, and again this year by yourself. Â A independent find takes a lot of work, regardless of the history, so congradulations!
I don't understand your comments regarding the state or you seeking slavage rights? Â

Apparently, this story made the ticker tape on the Wausau/Stevens Point news.
