"1940 Shipwreck Discovered in Lake Superior"
Shipwreck hunters have located the 1940 sunken merchant ship Arlington in Lake Superior, 35 miles north of Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula, at a depth of 650 feet. The ship, carrying wheat, sank during a storm, and its captain, Frederick Burke, went down with it. The crew survived, with Burke last seen waving at a passing freighter before the ship vanished. The discovery was made by shipwreck researcher Dan Fountain, providing closure to the family of Captain Burke and shedding light on a mysterious chapter in Lake Superior's history.
