Hunting New England Shipwrecks Welcome to Hunting New England Shipwrecks. This site was created with the help of several of my friends and fellow divers. As you explore the site, you'll find that it provides historical backgrounds, pictures and other information on some of New England's most well-known shipwrecks. It also provides maps and charts of the area, and detailed information on locating and diving on wrecks.  The waters along the New England coast are beautiful but treacherous. Over the years, rocky shoals, storms and fog have claimed many vessels. Some are sunk in deep water, while others can be found near shore and even on the beaches. Some ships didn't even have to sink to become wrecks.

New England Shipwreck Diving  The purpose in creating an exempted shipwreck site is to preserve such sites for the continued enjoyment of the recreational diving community. "Exempted" shipwreck sites have, quite literally been exempted from the Board's permitting process. Recreational diving activities, including casual artifact collection, on these sites does not require a permit from the Board. However, any major disruption of the site is prohibited. The List of Exempt Shipwrecks is open to modification. The recreational diving community is encouraged to protect these sites for the continued enjoyment of all.
