Re: Wreck found off Portwashinton,Wi

This wreck had quite of bit of disscusion at Ghost Ships last year, so I sent out an email this morning to get a slight clarification.  Apearrently it was first discovered in 1999 By Paul Ehorn and Butch Klopp, then recently (1-2 years ago) by Brendon, and again this year by yourself.  A independent find takes a lot of work, regardless of the history, so congradulations!
I don't understand your comments regarding the state or you seeking slavage rights?

No way,Just like to see that this site gets the states protection,Man no salvage rights! you ever drop a  new or newbie diver on a wreck  and see the look as they see thing's they never have seen before,may be old to you or junk,or a lame dive,Man I get a thrill just like the day I did my first dive!
  You ask a bunch of folks on this site,new divers old divers  ,hell Im still a new diver! about me taking them out on dives,no cash,no beer,no gas hell now I may need gas $$ ok CoastGuard get me! I love to dive! And have got to know a great group of dive pals,Just lost one a few months back,Im not bustin any dive charters nut,fact I send them divers! well I must go,but no salvage.

Apparently, this story made the ticker tape on the Wausau/Stevens Point news.
