TRITON FERRY
Photo: Triton Ferry sinking. Photos by Alan Marquardt.
The 65 foot ferry Triton was scuttled in May,1988,
approximately seven miles off the southwest side of the island, as a
dive site by the Bermuda Divers Association (BDA). Before her
sinking, great care was taken to clean her and make her safe for
divers. Ian Murdoch sent us a sketch of the Triton's engine
room plaque. The plaque read, "Built and Engined by Brookes Marine
Ltd, Shipbuilders & Engineers, Lowestoft 1960."; At the time of this
printing, the Triton has yet to be located. According to Mike
Burke, she should be sitting in about 55 to 80 feet of water and once
found will make a good dive site.

From the first quarter of the 16th century,
Bermuda became a landmark for
Spanish ships sailing back to Spain from the New World. The desire to sight
Bermuda to confirm their position often ended their voyage as they wrecked
on Bermuda's outer reefs. To this day Bermuda's treacherous reefs have taken
their toll on shipping. The reefs have claimed vessels ranging from ocean
lines to small fishing boats. Bermuda Shipwrecks is the most comprehensive,
accurate, illustrated collection of information, photographs, sketches and
stories ever written about the legendary wrecks around Bermuda. Bermuda
Shipwrecks includes over 100 illustrations comprised of 61 sensational color
photos, 17 rare b&w historical images, 19 stamps, 4 sketches plus one
map. Bermuda Shipwrecks contains a wealth of enlightening information that
gives the readers a nostalgic glimpse into the history and present condition
of over 55 of Bermuda's most popular Shipwrecks.
