Newaygo
Steam Barge
Depth: 25 ft
Built in 1980 and lost in November of 1903
Upbound, the Newaygo missed the channel in a blinding
blizzard-gale and went aground. A succession of storms
tore her to pieces. She had been bound Cleveland for
French River, Ont., towing the barge Checotah. Wreckage
ended up on Devil Isl. Reef.
Today, divers can see the massive timbers used in her
construction.
