"The state is trying to educate people about tales behind the many
shipwreck remains at the bottom of Lake Erie, in part to attract more
divers. Ohio officials are using photographs, newspaper articles and
underwater video taken from records at the Peachman Lake Erie Shipwreck
Research Center in Vermilion. The material, along with firsthand
accounts of the wrecks, are being displayed on a state-run Web site: ohioshipwrecks.org.
There
are an estimated 1,700 sunken ships in Lake Erie, but just 277 have been
found and identified. The project details 28 of the lake's known
shipwrecks.
