Pewabic

Collided almost bows-on with her sister ship METEOR in a passing error and sank quickly. The two boats may have been passing very closely to exchange mails and were pulled together by suction. METEOR loitered to pick up survivors, even though she was sinking herself. Owner: Lake Superior Line. Master: Capt. Geo. McKay. The master of the METEOR was Capt. Thomas Wilson, and the two were later business associates.

She has been mostly stripped of cargo and fittings in a long succession of salvage dives, which have been regularly made on her since at least 1880. One salvage project in 1897 used dynamite and a diving bell to take thousands of pounds of pure copper masses off her.
