  • Arabia: Name: Arabia - barque

Built: 1853 Length: 131 feet Sunk: 1884 - took on water and sank in heavy seas Depth: 105 feet Rating: Advanced Description: The Arabia has a definite and long standing connection to Tobermory. In 1854, she sailed to Glasgow, Scotland with a cargo of wheat and flour. She remained in the coastal trade on the northwest cost of Great Britain for a year or so. During that time, Tobermory, Scotland (on the isle of Mull) was one of her ports of call. After returning to Canada, she ran aground near Flowerpot Island in 1883. She was refloated, repaired and continued her service. The following year, she met her ultimate fate near Echo Island as she floundered and sank.

Currently, the hull is intact with the exception of the back 100' of the deck and the transom which have collapsed. The bow is very impressive with the jib-boom still in place (the jib-boom is often mistakenly called the bow-sprit). The windlass, bilge pump and 3 anchors are still in place on the bow. Deadeyes, pulleys and pinrails are still present on the sides. The masts have fallen but lay across the deck. The afterdeck has broken away and lies to the port of the stern. The steering gear and ships wheel lay on the starboard of the afterdeck. A commemorative plaque has been placed next to the ships wheel. This is the best and most interesting wreck in Tobermory. It should be dived by experienced divers only. However, it is well worth a few years of diving effort to gain the necessary experience to dive this wreck.

Great Lakes

See also: Great Lakes § Shipwrecks

There are several thousand shipwrecks in the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum uses the approximate figures of 6,000 ships and 30,000 lives lost.[82] David D. Swayze has compiled a list which details over 4,750 well-documented shipwrecks, mostly of commercial vessels and a list of known names of over 5,000 victims of those sinkings.[83] A three volume work by Georgann and Mike Wachter, Erie Wrecks East (2nd Ed.), Erie Wrecks West, and Erie Wrecks & Lights, identifies 110, 103, and 45 wreck locations respectively.[84] In History of Great Lakes, J.B. Mansfield documented 5,999 shipwrecks occurring between 1878 and 1897. Nearly one quarter of these shipwrecks were listed as total losses and a total of 1,166 lives were lost in this 20-year period.[85] Historian and mariner Mark Thompson estimated the total number of casualties over more than 300 years of Great Lakes shipping is likely more than 25,000. In the period between 1816 when the Invincible was lost to the sinking of the Fitzgerald in 1975, the Whitefish Point area has claimed at least 240 ships.[86]
