Kelly mapping Menemon
Sanford's "iron circles," metal rings used to reinforce the wooden
paddlewheels.
Welcome to PAST Foundation
2008 Underwater Field School. Over the next two weeks, seven students
from across America will embark on an adventure that will take them
under the warm, blue seas of the Florida coast.
The first few days the
students will catalog and document the unique and invaluable Trelawitz
Collection, which encompasses photographs and associated literature of
known shipwreck sites in the area over a twelve-year period. With the
information, the students will create a searchable database which will
provide a rare insight into documented site formation process.
After spending a few days
indoors I’m pretty confident that the students will be waiting by the
boat, fins on, Thursday morning as we set out to map the wreck site of
the Menemon Sanford.
Our daily journal will be
uploaded onto our website everyday, come join us on our adventure.

The crew (l. to r.): Anne Corscadden Knox, Tessa Riess, Kelly Morgan,
Erin Ching, Reid Harwood, Kathy Schubert, Scott Tucker, Chris Bossie,
Brooke Basse and Sheli Smith.
