Re: Cave Point, Door County
The weather was almost perfect yesterday for Cave Point. Wave action was a little strong and prevented us from looking at the shelf fingers north of the caves. Puddie, myself, nephews and a friend snorkeled/SASYed. We saw a couple of small schools of smelt/alewife. Water temps were on the cold side and I heard 61 degrees. Viz varied from 0-30'. We had some current from the north. I found a dollar bill and my youngest nephew found a ring to add to his treasure chest.
????DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THERE WAS A WRECK HERE????? We found several long pieces of iron strap 4"x1"x5-6' with holes about right size for trunnel nails along the shore and out to 100 yds out. We also found a chunk of wood that had large square nails in it along with some bent steel rods, and a chunk of 1"cable. Add to that the ladder fragment that I found on the last dive. The wood with nails and ladder could have floated in from elsewhere, but the metal chunks wouldn't have, unless pounded out of the wood by wave action/rocks. Could these have come from the Ocean Wave off Whitefish Dunes? Or is there a undiscovered wreck in the area?
