00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:25.620
The work that we're doing here today as part 
of the national marine sanctuary really has  

00:00:25.620 --> 00:00:30.540
a rippling effect. To know that there are 
still discoveries to be made here in the  

00:00:30.540 --> 00:00:34.440
depths of Lake Huron that will have 
interest to people around the world.

00:00:42.360 --> 00:00:46.260
The schooner Ironton had seven crew on board,  

00:00:46.260 --> 00:00:50.760
and unfortunately it was a tragic loss and 
five of the sailors did go down with the  

00:00:50.760 --> 00:00:55.320
ship. Two sailors survived and were able 
to to give the account of the sinking.

00:01:05.520 --> 00:01:11.220
Finding a shipwreck is an outrageously exciting 
moment, when you're seeing it for the first time.  

00:01:11.220 --> 00:01:16.680
And as the silhouette of something appears out 
of the darkness and seeing it really is a moment  

00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:21.600
of discovery. We can use the excitement of 
these shipwrecks, the thrill of discovery,  

00:01:21.600 --> 00:01:25.140
to really introduce people to the Great 
Lakes and and tell them how special they are.
