回复: Tobermory,Flowerpot Island二日游
下午2:30,带着依恋我们离开了小岛。接着游艇把我们带到了Big Tub,这个港湾的尽头就是有沉船的位置。游艇在沉船上转圈,所以在船两边都可以看到。突然想起了我们乘坐的游艇是玻璃底。。。驾驶室的后面围着许多人,大家都在往下看。原来在船舱里打了1米见方的“方井”,“井”底是4块玻璃拼成的,看沉船更清楚些。
沉船之一 Sweepstakes
On August 23, 1885 the Sweepstakes hit a rock near Cove Island and sank in shallow water close to the light station. She remained there until September 3rd when she was towed into Big Tub Harbor by the tug Jessie. It was found that the Sweepstakes was beyond repair, so she was stripped of all useful rigging and equipment before she sank in her present location. Her cargo of coal was salvaged at a later date.
另一艘 City of Grand Rapids
The City of Grand Rapids was a double-decked steamer working the coastal trade between Owen Sound and the villages of Manitoulin Island and the Bruce Peninsula. On the evening of October 29, 1907, fire broke out aboard the Grand Rapids while docked in Little Tub Harbor. Under the command of Captain Alex Craigie, the tug Clucas took the burning vessel in tow, pulled it out of the harbor, and released it. The City of Grand Rapids then drifted into Big Tub Harbor. It continued to burn, and eventually came to rest at the head of the harbor, where it burned to the waterline, rolled to starboard and sank.
