The Thousand Islands' Deadliest Shipwrecks Still Underwater
The Thousand Islands Deadliest Shipwrecks Still Underwater explores Thousand Islands shipwrecks, St Lawrence River shipwrecks, Thousand Islands history, and North Country history hidden beneath the waters of New York.
The Thousand Islands' deadliest shipwrecks still underwater rest beneath the St. Lawrence River in New York and include some of the most famous St. Lawrence River shipwrecks and hidden pieces of North Country history. Explore the Thousand Islands, forgotten places, underwater shipwrecks, and lost Americana hiding beneath these waters.
For centuries, the St. Lawrence River served as a highway for trade, exploration, and empire. Beneath its calm surface lies an underwater museum filled with wooden schooners, steel freighters, military vessels, and passenger ships that never completed their journeys.
In this episode of Triple T Tales, Beard Laws explores some of the most famous wrecks in Thousand Islands history, including the A.E. Vickery, the SS Keystorm, the Robert Gaskin, and the vessel America.
Inside This Episode:
• The history of the A.E. Vickery near Rock Island Lighthouse
• The SS Keystorm and the deadly fog that sealed its fate
• Strange local legends and unidentified wrecks beneath the river
• Colonial-era military vessels that shaped North American history
• Why divers from around the world visit the St. Lawrence River today
Welcome to Triple T Tales, a series exploring forgotten places, strange stories, hidden history, and bizarre truths from the North Country and beyond. Hosted by Beard Laws, these episodes dive into abandoned towns, industrial ruins, eerie backroads, and the kind of stories most people drive past without ever noticing.
