‘Sinking of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald’

April 20, 2018 @ 1:00 pm

The sinking of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald on Nov. 10, 1975 created as much mystery as fact. Join Great Lakes freighter historian “Freighter Frank” Frisk as he and the St. Clair Historical Museum present a video exploration of “S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald, Scientific Research Has Shown Another Reason for Her Sinking.” Go hundreds of feet below the Lake Superior surface as dive detectives explore the sunken ship looking for more clues about what caused it to sink. Watch maritime researchers re-create in a giant Canadian wave simulation tank the same tremendous forces of wind and water which the Mighty Fitz faced on that fateful day.
