In July 1896, the Samuel F. Hodge steamer caught fire in the middle of Lake Ontario. It was on route from Cleveland, Ohio to Prescott, Ontario carrying a cargo of 600 tons of iron wire. When the ship was near Oak Orchard, New York, a fire broke out and spread quickly inside the steamer. All of the crew was saved from the burning ship, except for a fireman, and the ship was lost.
However, last week, two explorers, Jim Kennard and Dan Scoville, discovered the 133 year old ship. Check out the video below to see some footage taken of the sunken steamer. Link.
