Milwaukee Car Ferry (1903)

The Milwaukee Car Ferry rests upright in about 130 feet of water, offering a deeper and more expansive wreck to explore. Its intact hull, towering bow, visible rail system, and two propellers make it one of the most iconic dives off Milwaukee, with cargo such as sinks still preserved inside the wreck. For properly trained divers, penetration into the engine room and crew quarters adds another layer of exploration.
