Wooden schooners preserved by cold fresh water look like they sank last year. Called 'Shipwreck Alley' for its fog, shoals and sudden gales. Designated a national marine sanctuary in 2000 and expanded in 2014, the only place in the world where you can paddle over an intact 19th-century schooner. Anchorage: Alpena and Rogers City harbours; the sanctuary covers 4,300 square miles of Lake Huron. Hazards: No site-specific hazards noted, brief normally. Más
