DUNDERBERG - (N43.55.641 W.082.33.391)  143 to 157 Feet Deep.  The Dunderberg is probably the most visited technical diving wreck in the Thumb Bottomland Preserve.  The Dunderberg was lost in a collision on August 13th, 1868.  The Dunderberg is in amazing condition and sitting upright on the bottom in 155 feet of water.  The bow sprit is adorn with a figurehead and the holds still contain its cargo of grain.  Along the starboard side, you can see the deep gash cut into the hull from the collision in 1868.  (Drawing by Robert McGreevy of the Dunderberg on the bottom of Lake Huron)
