Diving the 1,000 Islands in the St. Lawrence River

Gary and Carol Comstock

Gary and Carol Comstock will present a multi-media presentation on diving the 1,000 Islands region of the St. Lawrence River in the US and Canada. We’ll watch a brief presentation on Diving the Wreck of the Daryaw, a 200-foot freighter shipwrecked in 1941 that Gary and some friends researched and discovered in 1972.

We’ll also see a short film that Gary and Carol shot of the region in August 2011 when they dove two wooden schooners, one of which sunk in the 1800’s.

Come and enjoy a presentation of the Freshwater Shipwreck Capital of the World that is still yielding newly discovered wrecks and wreckage from as far back as the 1756 French and Indian War to wrecks from the 1800’s to today’s modern ships.

This presentation is a prelude to Wreck Trek, a Lockheed Martin Dive Club trip that Gary will lead in August 2012. If you have ever wanted to dive warm, clear, fresh water wrecks, come see this presentation. There is still room for 6 divers on this amazing trip!

PIRATES BEWARE . . . There may be some Cap’n Morgan Rum up for grabs!

See you January 10th!
