Re: Interesting documentary on the sidewheeler "Atlantic"
This was a great documentary, thanks.
I was kind of hoping they might have the permission, and perhaps more equipment to explorer/salvage inside.
There once was a lot of steamers on Lake Chautauqua - most burned up or sank. I have always wondered - as a kid my mom would occasionally find coal near the docks at Point Chautauqua beach under water from the steamers of yesteryear with her feet. They are out there to be explored - but diving is probably another expensive hobby I can't invest in right now.
