Hello Michlib-l,

 

Please join us at 7:00 PM on Monday, August 29, 2022 for the Shipwreck Tales of Georgia Bay event. 

 

In 2018, Cris Kohl & Joan Forsberg’s dive team located two famous shipwrecks, J.H. Jones & Manasoo, in Lake Huron’s Georgian Bay. The Manasoo discovery went viral due to the wreck’s unique characteristics, such as an intact pilot house and a 1927 automobile. Cris & Joan will discuss and show video footage of their important and exciting finds. Numerous other Georgian Bay shipwrecks, such as the fabled Griffin, will be highlighted in this presentation.

Cris Kohl & Joan Forsberg are maritime historians, divers, videographers, shipwreck hunters, speakers and the authors of numerous books on the Great Lakes. Their book The Christmas Tree Ship is now available as an audiobook and they are currently writing a new book. Tap https://tinyurl.com/sdeumwmk to register. This is a virtual event. Registration is required to receive the Zoom link

 

Hope to see you there!
