Great news we are proud to share from one of our Lindell owners!
Nomad Exploration Team Finds the SS Cornwallis, Lost for More Than 80 Years Off The Maine Coast.
The U-boat that landed two N**i saboteurs on the Maine coast sank this ship four days later. Now divers have found it.
Portsmouth, NH – 10/27/2026 – For more than eight decades, the steamship SS Cornwallis lay somewhere beneath the cold waters off the coast of Maine. On July 11, 2026, the Nomad Exploration Team discovered her exact location.
After numerous expeditions to the northern Maine coast over several years, the team located the wreck in close to 400 feet of water. Side scan sonar first revealed the wreck, and subsequent dives by the team confirmed her identity and final resting place.
The discovery team included Danny Allan, Ross Baxter, Mark Bowers, Josh Cummings, Don Ferrara, Bob Foster, Nate Garrett, Jeff Goudreau and Ryan King. The Gulf of Maine did not make it easy, and the dive team contended with cold water, strong currents, serious depth and a remote location.
“For the team, finding the wreck was the culmination of years of persistence,” said Allan. “For the families and communities connected to the ship, it brings renewed attention to a largely forgotten tragedy.”
We have published a video from Danny Allan on our YouTube channel. We are limited on total characters in the caption here on Facebook and Instagram, but you can find a more in-depth history of the SS Cornwallis in the caption of the YouTube video, as well as a great explanation of the journey to find the wreck from Danny in the video itself.
Congratulations to Danny and the Nomad Exploration Team on the discovery.
