Attraction
Description
Lying in about 55 feet of water, the shipwreck site is easily accessible by boat. Kate Kelly is a popular shipwreck for beginner divers, and with the schooner's keelson assembly, windlass, starboard bow section, and portions of the centerboard easily discernable, it remains a great site to explore. The site is marked with a seasonal Wisconsin Historical Society shipwreck mooring buoy, allowing boats to tie up directly above the site while protecting the shipwreck from inadvertent anchor damage and providing a safe point of ascent and descent for divers.
