ALBANY, N.Y. — The 144-year-old shipwreck of a rare sailing vessel
that typically wasn’t used for long voyages on the Great Lakes has
been found in deep water off Lake Ontario’s New York shore, according
to two underwater explorers.

Western New York-based explorers Jim Kennard and Roger Pawlowski
announced Friday that they identified the wreck as the Black Duck in
September, three years after initially coming across it while using
side-scan sonar in 350 feet of water off Oswego, New York.
