A Civil War-era shipwreck has just been discovered in lake Huron by prolific shipwreck finder David Trotter and his crew.
The Detroit Free Press: Great Lakes shipwreck hunter finds Keystone State, lost in Lake Huron for 152 years
The wreck, a steamer on route from Detroit to Milwaukee in the early months of the Civil War, sank in November 1861.
Now lying upright on the bottom in 175 feet of water, both sidewheels are intact and visible on the 300 foot-long ship. From the pictures and video it looks to be in great shape.
Yet another great discovery of a long-lost shipwreck in Michigan waters.
