Sunken Ship Reefs in the 1,000 Island Region
The Eastern Ontario Artificial Reef Association has unveiled their plan to sink an old navy warship in the St. Lawrence River. Their goal is to create an artificial reef for drivers to explore.
I have always wanted to explore sunken ships! I think has something to do with me wanting to be a pirate as a small child.
The site the group has proposed is in the 1,000 Island region near Gananoque Ontario, just east of Kingston, however the exact drop site will be revealed on Friday. With hopes that the new ship can generate 10,000 new visitors a year as well as taking the pressure off of the already deteriorating wooden ships divers can explore at this point.
