About Subraon Wreck

The Subraon was a Wooden Barkentine. She sank in October 1848 while transporting refugees. The Captain ignored orders from the harbor master and tried to steer the vessel out of the harbor via Chaffers Passage. She eventually ran over the rocks and sank within minutes. She rests in very shallow waters and makes a easy shore dive.
