I just think this is the coolest thing. To have been this far inland, and have seen these big ships would have been so very cool.
"The HMS Ontario had long been regarded as one of the "Holy Grail" shipwrecks and is the oldest shipwreck and only fully intact British warship ever found in the Great Lakes. The 22-gunship was lost with barely a trace and as many as 130 people aboard during a gale in 1780."
There are lots and lots of links to this story:
