Kiley B reef
Side-scan sonar image, unknown date. Doesn't look like there was much left of the wooden hull.

The Kiley B was sunk by the Artificial Reef Committee before the state's reef program began. Not listed in state records; I doubt there is anything left of it.

Steamer or Steamship

Steamer is an early term for any vessel power by a steam engine rather than sails.

Shipwreck Delaware
The Delaware, an 1880s screw steamer

Early steamers were propelled by large paddlewheels. "Side-wheelers", with the paddlewheels on each side, were more seaworthy, and therefore more common in ocean waters, while "stern-wheelers", with a single large paddlewheel at the back, were more common as riverboats. Later, these were replaced by more efficient screw (or propeller) vessels.
