(left) This 2003 photo by Stan Stock shows the Spangler's nameboard (right) Today the name is unreadable due to coverage by quagga mussels, an invasive species related to zebra mussels.
Made up of many individual images, this 2008 photomosaic of the site shows vividly the fatal bow damage that sent the Spangler to the bottom (NOAA/Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary).
