Shipwreck of the Norman, Thunder Bay, Ontario

First dive of the weekend — the deepest one at 200ft. The Norman is a beautiful wreck, the sister ship of the Grecian. She was a steam cargo ship hit by a wooden ship called the Jack and went down in May 1895. We had an excellent dive but there is so much to see — only got into half the wreck before having to turn to our decompression schedules. No incidents, everyone had a successful dive. Our second dive was on the New Orleans but only after threading through thunderstorms on the lake. My housing fogged completely so my photos came out terrible. Jitka Hanakova's photos from Shipwreck Explorers tell the story. Will need to go back to the other side of the Norman. VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OqOsFAW_0I.
