SS Hudson, Steel-hulled package freighter in Houghton County, US.
The SS Hudson measures 825 feet deep in Lake Superior, with its hull structure maintaining substantial integrity despite spending over a century underwater.
The Detroit Dry Dock Company constructed this steel-hulled Great Lakes freighter in 1887, marking an era of industrial advancement in maritime transportation.
The discovery of SS Hudson in 2019 contributes to the understanding of Great Lakes maritime operations and vessel construction methods from the 1880s.
The wreck location at 47°29'56.044"N, 88°15'11.768"W requires specialized deep-water equipment and technical expertise for any exploration attempts.
