On November 18th, 1958 the massive Carl D. Bradley steamed desperately across Lake Michigan.  Gale force winds forged waves up to 45', pounding and twisting the ship mercilessly.  As evening approached, Frank Mays, the Deck Watchman stared in horror as the ship shuttered, buckled and broke.  Elmer Fleming, the 1st Mate, radioed mayday as he scrambled from the bridge. Moments later, a mountainous wave pitched them into the freezing water. Miraculously, they found a raft and would be rescued, but nearly lifeless after 15 hours adrift.  So treacherous were the conditions, James Cropper of the US Coast Guard vessel Hollyhock described the search mission as a "visit to Hell." Of the Bradley's 35 man crew, only Frank and Elmer would survive the sinking. The Bradley now rests in silent darkness, 380' beneath the waves.  She is the 2nd largest shipwreck in the Great Lakes but the extreme depth, darkness and cold permit very few to reach her.  Join our 2006 & 2007 expedition divers on a descent to the ice water museum of the Carl D. Bradley.  Originally filmed in high definition format, this work provides breathtaking views of the pilot house, bow cabins and bell with unsurpassed clarity.  Also included is premier footage of the haunting stern section, from the first divers to have reached it!"  NEW FOR 2007:  THE REMOVAL OF THE SHIP'S BELL-experience the monumental task of removing the ship's bell and replacement of the 50th Anniversary Memorial.
