Century-old experimental submarine wreckage discovered off Connecticut coast.

TL;DR Summary
Divers in Connecticut have discovered the wreckage of an experimental submarine built in 1907 and later scuttled in the Long Island Sound. The Defender, a 92ft craft, was found on Sunday by a team led by Richard Simon, a commercial diver from Coventry, Connecticut. The submarine spent many years docked in New London before being abandoned on a mud flat near Old Saybrook. It was scuttled by the US Army Corps of Engineers in 1946 but the corps never disclosed where. Simon and his team plan to spend the summer diving on the sub, filming it and taking photographs.
