List of shipwrecks of Isle Royale : ウィキペディア英語版 | List of shipwrecks of Isle Royale The List of shipwrecks of Isle Royale includes more than 25 ships that have been sunk near Isle Royale in Lake Superior (North America). Isle Royale has been an obstacle to shipping on Lake Superior since the earliest days. Upon its reefs, more than 25 major wrecks have occurred. Some were refloated, but most never left. ==Early wrecks== Still to be found beneath the waves of Lake Superior are the wooden sidewheeler, ''Cumberland'' (1877); bulk freighter, ''Chester Congdon'' (1918); and the first Canadian wheat packet, ''Emperor'' (1947). Earlier, the ''Kamloops'' which "went missing" in 1927 was found on the northern shore of the island in 1977. The earliest recorded wrecks were the ''Madeline'' (1839) and the ''Siskiwit'' (1840) of the American Fur Company. Many smaller French "ships" were reported upon Lake Superior in the 18th century, which were gone before the English arrival in 1763. Along the north shore of the lake, the most celebrated wreck is that of the ''America'' which served as a connection between Isle Royale and the mainland and was a highway from Duluth, Minnesota, to Port Arthur, Ontario.〔Stonehouse, Frederick (1977).
