Lil' Irish Temper:I've heard stories from some divers about one wreck in Lake Superior where the Chief Engineer in still on board and everyone calls him "Whitey" because of the soap like appearance of his skin. Maybe that's the one you are talking about. I don't know if it's true, and I've never dove Lake Superior, but I've heard it from different dive camps.
You are referring to the "Kamloops" near Isle Royale. The ship sunk and the crew/passengers were stranded on Isle Royale. All that survived the shipwreck eventually died from exposure to the weather. I believe the fate of the crew/passengers was learned from a message in a bottle.....
