Technical Dive - Isle Royale Wreck Dives

[wazee-sports]

ISLE ROYALE WRECK DIVES: 2008

One of the wrecks we will be diving on is the Kamloops:
Kamloops was a freighter that was 250' long.  The ship disappeared in a storm in 1927.  Divers discovered the ship in 1977.  This wreck has been explored by ROV after it was discovered.  The wreck lies in more than 200' of water and is far beyond sport diving limits. 

The waters of Isle Royale offer some of the best wreck diving in the world.  Isle Royale National Park is a wilderness island located 20 miles from the Minnesota shore of Lake Superior.  Beautiful but treacherous islands and shoals surround this 50-mile long island.  These shoals have claimed about a dozen large ships.  Professional archeologists have surveyed the historic wooden wrecks.  Their diagrams and reports will help you interpret these less intact wrecks.  You can explore the rooms and machinery spaces of the more intact steel wrecks.  Portholes, bottles, wrenches, lights, and lanterns are just some of the examples of artifacts, which still remain for you to see, enjoy, photograph, and leave behind.  If you choose, you may sacrifice a dive for some island hiking or exploring.

We will be diving with MN-Blackdog Diving LLC. While at Isle Royale you will eat and sleep aboard the boat, remaining in the park for the duration of your cruise. During the day we will moor over one or more shipwrecks. In the evening, anchor in a secluded bay or dock at a lakeside campground. The price also includes your food. Mixed gases are extra.
