Shipwreck From 60 Years Ago Found

A group of shipwreck hunters have made a record breaking discovery near Thunder Bay.

The group found the sunken Scotiadoc which sank near the Sleeping Giant in 1954 after colliding with another ship.

A member of the group, Jerry Eliason says it's a significant find because it's in 870 feet of water, the deepest a shipwreck has been found in the Great Lakes.

The discovery of the Issac Jenkins in Lake Ontario held the previous record at 750 feet.
