January 12, 2019 Second Saturday "The Final Voyage of the Edward
E. Skeele" with Ric Mixter 1:00pm Join award-winning videographer Ric Mixter as he searches Lake Huron for the
lost schooner Edward E. Skeele, which was chronicled in photographs during its last voyage for cedar posts near Manitoulin
Island. The loss of the ship is one of the few to have such a detailed record of its sinking, and the location of the
remains seemed like it would be easy. Ric has used the internet to chase down clues, and also found that the wreck's
captain has a tie to another wreck near Alpena. From U-boats to Schooners, you know Ric will tie it all together in
a fun lecture as Second Saturday's first presenter for 2019!
