Description
Lying in nearly 60 feet of water, the shipwreck site is easily accessible by boat. Carrington is a popular shipwreck for beginner divers, and remains scattered on the bottom of Green Bay. The site is marked with a seasonal Wisconsin Historical Society shipwreck mooring buoy, allowing boats to tie up directly above the site while protecting the shipwreck from inadvertent anchor damage and providing a safe point of ascent and descent for divers.
