156-year-old schooner found intact in Lake Michigan with artifacts still onboard

Shipwreck hunters discovered the intact remains of the schooner Trinidad that sank in Lake Michigan in 1881.
The well-preserved ship still contains possessions of the crew, who survived the sinking.
The Trinidad was built in 1867 for grain trade between Great Lakes cities.
The ship sank off the Wisconsin coast in 1881 after taking on water, but the crew rowed to safety.
The cold, fresh waters of Lake Michigan contribute to preserving shipwrecks like the Trinidad.
