Shipwreck Tours for All Ages on Burlington Bay

Date: May-30-2009 - Oct-25-2009  
Location/Sponsor: Shipwreck Tour - Burlington
Category: History & Education
 
About the Event:

Explore Lake Champlain’s incredible and intact shipwrecks without getting wet. Cruise to the shipwreck site with an experienced captain, and become part of the exploration as the wreck is located with a digital depth sounder. Once 'discovered', we deploy an ROV (remotely operated vehicle) that sends streaming video images to a screen onboard and we proceed to explore the wreck. Learn about the people and boats who used to travel Lake Champlain and get a look at a piece of history that remains intact and untouched. This experience combines history with technology and is great for all ages.
