Dove this wreck on Aug 20, 2021. Vis was great and sitting behind the ship at the rudder at a depth of 119 feet you could see 40 feet. Current was moderate on the starboard side of the ship. Lots of fish. Great Dive.

My first dive in the St. Lawrence. Customs was a hassle, but it always is nowadays. I started in NY, so had to clear Canadian customs to cross over, then got to dive boat, back to US waters, had to clear US customs at Heart Island to dive in US water, after dives, had to clear Canadian customs to come back to dock (skipper did if via cell phone), then got in my car and drove back through US customs to come back to NY.

Easy mooring site, you drop down on eastern side of seaway channel and follow a chain along the bottom into the channel to dive the site in about 90 ffw. Usually a decent current and plenty of fish but a nice wooden wreck overall.
