Lake Erie Technical Wreck Diving Guide - Erik A. Petkovic

Descriere Lake Erie Technical Wreck Diving Guide - Erik A. Petkovic

\n \nErik Petkovic's Lake Erie Technical Wreck Diving Guide is packed with tales of maritime disasters: sailing ships and steamers which foundered, succumbed to storms, collided or were engulfed in flames. There are ships which sank more than once, were involved in wars, slave escapes and catastrophic collisions, plus daring stories of deep salvage, valuable cargoes, submarines, experimental engineering and unidentified wrecks. The guide brings to life the rediscovered history of the ships, passengers and crews.\n \nThen there are the dives themselves. Some of the wrecks are remarkably intact for their age. Amongst the features which can be seen are wooden ships' wheels, standing masts, rudders, propellers, portholes, engines, boilers and steamship hogging arches. Each chapter describes the history, current condition, location, dimensions, hazards and highlights of an individual wreck. The author's original research, contributor photos and archive materials help bring these 19 enticing, challenging, rarely dived wrecks to life.\n
