Hanover (schooner)

Hanover was a freight schooner that operated on the Great Lakes. The vessel's wreck is located off the coast of Fish Creek, Wisconsin.

History

The Hanover was built in 1853. It hauled bulk cargo, primarily grain, across the upper Great Lakes. The vessel struck a shoal near the Strawberry Islands in November 1867. As a result, it was stripped and abandoned.
In 2014, the shipwreck was re-discovered. The following year, it was added to the State and the National Register of Historic Places.
