In the depths of Canada’s Lake Ontario rest two of the best preserved wooden shipwrecks in the entire world. The Hamilton and the Scourge have been frozen in time for nearly two centuries.
The gunships vanished in a violent summer storm August 8, 1813. They were part of the American fleet, battling the British navy for control of the Great Lakes during the War of 1812. The ships disappeared in just moments, taking most of their crews, more than 80 men, to the bottom. There is no record of a navy inquest, and the tragedy has never been fully investigated.
The Fletchers join forces with a team of archaeologists, scientists and marine engineers in an attempt to penetrate the wrecks for the first time since their sinking. Guided by the testimony of Ned Myers - a sailor who dictated the only surviving eyewitness account of the disaster - the team work to uncover the truth behind the sinking and why so many lives were lost.

As though of us who live right on the Great Lakes know, rogue storms can happen in a flash, and especially since it was a warm night. Cyclonic waterspouts would not be anything to get caught in, and you'd not know where it was coming from in the roaring dark, if that had happened... Each lake has its own ways of creating fatal difficulty. For instance, Lake Erie, where I am, can slosh from one end to the other, with winds alone..it's treachery lies in the fact that it is the most shallow..but we get storms rolling down from lake Ontario, just as much as diving down from L Huron. I'm always surprised, when someone sees the coast for the first time.. "wow, it's like the ocean!! I thought it was just a nice little lake!!" STAY SAFE, DIVERS!! ❤

yep i get your point - i always used to laugh at the doo gooders, when saying about having peace and quite at say a bird sanctuary, or not disturbing the habitats of bats etc, the thing is all wildlife etc get on best they can around us - look at the biggest bird sanctuary there is, any one know it, where it is any guessed at Cape Canaveral, and what goes on there, interesting though that a single muscle poses so much threat to this expedition, which really in hind sight was already answered by the survivors from that night, but just confirmed by this, still its nice to be able to see the wreck with more modern aids, but again i ask, yes its a war grave, but these people didn't die because of war, but a storm we in the UK raised the Mary Rose, hundreds perished, but it was a very important archeological find, aren't these wrecks important too, like Shackleton's wreck Endurance, will she be raised somehow? and besides if this wreck was brought up, can the muscles not be sold off, i mean, is there no muscle farming off the lakes or is that a no no ? don't get me wrong, i am for protecting the environment, but in order to make that omlett eggs must suffer

the weird part of the history of these two ships was just after they were found the U.S.navy along with the army corps pf engineers offered at full cost to themselves to raise both ships give one to canada and keep one in buffalo to fully restore and every once in awhile swap ships or have visits(remember these are USA ships anyway) what a generous offer, Canada and the city of hamilton which owns the rights to these ships said no, hamilton fabricated a fake mast and put in fake headstones at confederation park with the names of the U.S. sailors along with a building at the local university named the hamilton and scourge where they were to be stored and renovated, of course nothing has happened the only fair thing is to get in touch with the U.S. navy and relinquish ownership to them, that is their only hope of surviving....if its not too late

Back in the 70’s I watched a video by Dr. McInnis, (spelling?) of the two boats. At that time they were in pristine condition. The masts were still in place and there weren’t any zebra muscles. I mentioned that these wreaks should be salvaged. The usual reason was lack of funds. US and Canada didn’t want to deal with it. What a shame. A few years ago I searched for that video, but never found it.

In that 70’s video, Dr McInnis found all the cannons on one boat on the port side, leading him to believe that the cannons broke free on the Stbd side due to a heavy swell causing the boat to lean heavily to port. The stbd cannons to brake free, they came crashing down to port side, causing the boat to list more to port, causing the boat to be swamped.

Funny how these two ships are considered war graves, yet the H L Hunley was not given the same designation. As far as I'm concerned both ships should be raised, and the remains found in and around the ships be given proper burial with military honors. The ships could then be preserved and studied.

Even if the whole crew made it off the ship, in the darkness and wild seas with no life preservers and no one to pick them up, they all would have perished. I have dove many wrecks in Lake Michigan and it is not unusual to find the life boat on the bottom near the stern. That is because they are secured to the life boat davits and they get pulled down with the sinking ship in a scenario like this. Add to this the temperature of the water and your chances of survival are nil.

British North American in this case. This is a CanWest and Ontario production. The flashy sweep camera lens flare style was just about patented in the 80s in Canadian productions....common in documentaries and SciFi anthology series to stretch out 10 minutes of content to an hour. There's been copies in other parts of the English speaking world since. This particular dive is about 15 minutes worth of content...rest if fluff and false drama. I just skipped and found it was a rather dull filmed dive finding nothing but an empty hold, some deck cannons, a figurehead and a lot of mussels.
