OJ Walker Shipwreck
O.J. Walker is highly frequented as it’s only in 65 feet of water. Many levels of divers can access this wreck but we don’t recommend it for the beginner diver as it gets quite dark at this depth. The O.J. Walker, a sailing canal boat, was built in 1862 in Burlington, Vermont and she sank 33 years later on May 11, 1895 during an unexpected wind storm..
