Looking for certain back issues of The Fisherman Mag
Probly early 90's
They did a few articles on the shipwrecks of Boston's dumping grounds. If I remember they rented a side scan sonar and listed a bunch of confirmed wrecks and rockpiles they located.
I'm looking for the 4 or 5 mags featuring the wrecks plus the final article in the series, that lists the loran numbers for what they found.
Some of the wrecks were the Aloha, the Coyote, Pier7 barge. Etc.
Somebody must have them.

I remember that one.. I beleive they even had the cement boat in it..... I believe Tim Coleman wrote it... I know I have it... but finding which box it is in could prove to be a chore.. |
A good run is better than a bad stand!

Like rockfish I have to figure out which box they're in. Maybe over the holiday weekend. I'll shoot you a pm if I find them.

Happy TG !!!!

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

Speaking of wrecks, the ones in RI, is there anywhere that shows gps to them? Also the debris from the old Newport bridge. Anyone know where they dumped that? Pm's welcome if you don't want to say.
Sorry for the hijack Mike.
