    Extractions: Public Affairs The most well known shipwrecks in the Gulf of Mexico come from a more recent time period, but ships have sailed these waters since the 16th century. Many of these early vessels foundered or ran aground. Though documentation of their exact location is rarely accurate, several of these wrecks, ranging in date from the 16 th through the 18 th centuries, have been identified throughout the Gulf. Em anuel Point Shipwreck One of the earliest shipwrecks discovered in the Gulf of Mexico was located in Pensacola Bay, Florida, in 1992. The site was identified during a remote sensing survey by archaeologists with the Florida Bureau of Archaeological Research. Over the last nine years researchers from the University of West Florida have conducted underwater excavations of the vessel. They hypothesize that the wreck is the lower hull of a Spanish vessel that dates to the Tristan de Luna expedition of 1559. Analysis of the magnetic signature of this early shipwreck has provided the MMS with valuable comparative data for the review and analysis of shallow hazard and archaeological survey reports. L aSalle Shipwreck Project One of the most significant underwater archaeological finds in North America was made by a team from the Texas Historical Commission (THC) in 1995 in 12 feet of water in Matagorda Bay, Texas. After the team recovered a distinctive bronze cannon bearing the crest of Louis XIV they hypothesized that the vessel was the French ship

    Extractions: Portal Home Galleries SS Rohilla ... Website Links Welcome to the Whitby Dive Site I hope you find it interesting. My first introduction to sub aqua diving was as a member of the BSAC in 1985 and continued on through the diver grades to become an Open Water Instructor using my knowledge and experience to introduce students to the wonderful world of sub aqua diving. Along with some close friends we were planning to open a new diver training school here in Whitby alongside a shop. To meet the criteria set by the BSAC I was happy to begin the process of advancing my instructor to the next level as a BSAC Advanced Diving Instructor. I had passed the theory test, unfortunately finding a local suitable inland location outside of the diving season proved difficult as we had suffered some bad weather. The BSAC coach was far from encouraging and had little enthusiasm preventing me taking it any further, and thus ending our school / shop plans. As far as diving went my passion was wreck diving. I looked forward to the challenge that deep diving offered reflected in the majority of dives I undertook. It would be quite difficult to choose the best dive I have ever done, but a 58 metre dive to an unknown wreck is one of my most memorable. The wreck was known locally as

    Account of the wreck of this brig off Monterey in 1834.  
    http://shipwrecks.slc.ca.gov/Articles/Natalia.html
    
    Extractions: The Mexican company Compania Cosmopolitana, under the direction of Jose Maria Padres and Jose Maria Hijar, bought the brig Natalia in Acapulco on June 21, 1834, for $14,000, (payable in 7200 arrobas of California tallow). Padres and Hijar planned to settle a colony of immigrants from Mexico on the California frontier, in the Santa Rosa valley, and export the California products the settlers would eventually produce. They hoped to make a profit monopolizing the growing California trade. The Natalia set sail from San Blas, Mexico for Monterey, California on August 1, 1834, under the command of Captain Juan Gomez. In Monterey harbor on the afternoon of December 21, 1834, a storm struck, and the ship's anchor chains parted. A customs boat sent to help the Natalia capsized in the surf. The Natalia's crew hoisted the spritsail, in an attempt to control the ship, but it did not help matters. The brig drifted toward the mouth of the Salinas River, but before reaching it, was driven ashore about two miles above the town. Efforts were made to turn the bow to shore, but this too failed and the Natalia beached broadside. By midnight, the ship had split in two and the cook and two sailors were killed in the process.

    Extractions: Now viewable HERE From the very first Native American occupation of this region, people have been using Lake Champlain for sustenance, warfare, commerce, and now recreation. It forms a natural water highway between the Adirondacks to the west and the Green Mountains to the east. Military control of the lake meant control of the surrounding regions. Later the lake was used for commercial purposes, shipping goods and products north into Canada and south to the Hudson River. Join us as we discuss these timeframes in Lake Champlain History With such active use of the lake, accidents were inevitable. Boats from every time period in history have been sunk, and not all of them unintentionally. The list of shipwrecks below is by no means exhaustive. These represent only a sampling of the sites strewn across the bottom of Lake Champlain. Shipwreck Tours!
