About Conestoga (Wreck)
Conestoga is a shallow shore wreck in the St. Lawrence River that works well as an easy river dive with a short route from shore. The hull is long enough to explore in multiple passes, and the current outside the wreck is the main thing to respect. Inside the wreck, the dive feels more sheltered and gives you time to work along the engine, chain, and stern details.
