New Jersey Scuba Diving

Glory

Well, it's that time of year again, time to renew the web hosting. And for those of you that don't know, that has become a lot more expensive than it used to be. Fifty dollars a year is now several hundred. Not to mention the price of domain names has gone up ten-fold.

And I just found out that the nice folks at PayPal disabled all my Support buttons, and I never got a notice (although that may be my fault.) In any case, it is all working again now, so if you would like to make a small donation to help defray these costs, it would be greatly appreciated.

Type:
shipwreck
Depth:
70 ft

The "Glory Wreck" is a twisted mass of hull plates and steel spread over a wide area on a sandy bottom. Artifacts are occasionally found: portholes and brass. She is usually a good lobster wreck.

Possibly the remains of the Lake Frampton; once thought to be the Kennebec.
