The ''Fleetwing'' was a schooner that sank in Lake Michigan off the coast of Liberty Grove, Wisconsin, United States. In 2001 the shipwreck site was added to the National Register of Historic Places.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Weekly List of Actions Taken On Properties )〕 ==History== The ''Fleetwing'' was constructed in Manitowoc, Wisconsin in 1867 by what is now known as the Burger Boat Company.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Service History )〕 Its finished cost was $30,000. She was rebuilt in 1885. On September 26, 1888, the ''Fleetwing'' departed from Menominee, Michigan carrying lumber en route to Chicago, Illinois.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Final Voyage )〕 Later that night, as the ship approached Porte des Morts, a gale began to form. Reports of what happened later would be conflicting, but what is known is that at 11:00 p.m., the ship struck a rocky beach that apparently sheared off a mast. Initially, efforts were made to save the vessel, but another gale began to form during the process and the tugboat that had been attempting to retrieve the ''Fleetwing'' was forced to evacuate the area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Final Voyage page 2 )〕 By the time the tugboat was able to return, the second gale had caused irreparable damage to the ''Fleetwing''. The remnants of the ''Fleetwing'' are owned by the State of Wisconsin and the site is managed by the Wisconsin Historical Society and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Today page 3 )〕 She lies in of water in Garrett Bay.
