The material on Shotline Diving covers a wide stretch of water: the Great Lakes, the
St. Lawrence and Seaway, and the rivers and harbours that connect them. To make that
easier to navigate, the archive is organised by both region and
project. Regions follow the geography you see on the chart, while
projects group together focused work and collaborations that cut across normal
boundaries.

Each hub below leads to a defined area of work – Kingston, Picton, the American
Seaway and Cape Vincent, verified shore dives, and the wider Great Lakes and rivers.
From those hubs you can move out again to the Master Wreck Index and the Wreck Map, or
down into individual site pages that carry the full Shotline Diving format.

Use this page whenever you want to understand the context around a wreck or dive site:
what else lies in the same stretch of water, how a project is developing over time,
and how the individual dives and documents fit into the wider story.

Explore the Regions & Projects

Choose a region or project below to see the wrecks, dive sites, documents, photographs,
and where available, 3D models and video that have been grouped under that heading.
Each tile links to a dedicated hub page; from there, you can jump to individual wreck
records, shore dives, and related research.



K
Lake Ontario

Kingston Region Project

Wrecks, shore dives and historical sites in the Kingston area, including the approaches
to the St. Lawrence. This hub pulls together classic charter wrecks, teaching sites,
river transitions and harbour remains into a single regional view.

Includes local moorings, access notes, and cross-links to documents and image sets
where available.


P
Bay of Quinte / Lake Ontario

Picton & Bay of Quinte Project

Focused on the Picton area and Bay of Quinte: deep cargo wrecks, near-shore sites and
historic harbour remains. This project tracks both well-known dives and quieter targets
that sit just off the ferry routes and headlands.

Organised to support both charter operations and independent dive planning, with emphasis
on depth, conditions and ongoing research.


AS
American Seaway

American Seaway & Cape Vincent

Wrecks and dive sites on the American side of the Seaway, centred on Cape Vincent and
adjoining stretches of river and lake. This project recognises that the water does not
care which side of the border you are on; the currents and traffic are continuous.

Links cross-border wreck histories, charts and local diving practices, and highlights how
Seaway development reshaped older navigation routes.


VM
Shore Dives & Local Sites

Verified by Mark

A collection of sites personally verified and documented by Mark: shore dives, smaller
wrecks and local features that might otherwise be overlooked. Many of these dives sit
close to towns, ferries and public access points.

Emphasis on accurate positions, realistic descriptions of entry and conditions, and
repeatable navigation so that other divers can follow the same lines.


GL
Multi-Region

Great Lakes & Rivers – Wider Coverage

Sites and research that range beyond the immediate Kingston–Picton–Seaway area:
wrecks and projects on the other Great Lakes, connecting rivers and outlying harbours.
This hub is the doorway into the broader Shotline map beyond the core home region.

Ideal for trip planning, comparative research and seeing how local wreck stories fit
into the larger Great Lakes system.
