Freighter carrying cargo of sugar from Honolulu. Sank in a collision with the Elizabeth Palmer. Built: 1914. Sank: 1915. Length: 407 ft. Depth: 90-100 ft. You can swim right through the bow section which is a hang out for large schools of fish. She lies upside down with the highest relief in the bow at about 20 ft. Swimming aft past the enormous boilers, she breaks down to a mass of large broken hull plates. A favorite lobster wreck, especially on night dives. This is probably the most visited wreck site out of Indian River Inlet.
