The wreck of the F/V Patriot lies in the Stellwagen Bank Marine Sanctuary. The Patriot was a 62ft steel-hulled western rig dragger that sank on January 3 2009 with the loss of her two crew members. Today she sits in approximately 100ft of water in Stellwagen Bank off the coast of Massachusetts. A variety of marine life can be seen here. Keep your eyes open for bluefin tuna, blue or basking sharks and mola mola sunfish. Some divers have reported seeing humpback, mink and fin whales, but there are strict regulations against diving when whales are present. Your captain will provide you with guidance in the event whales are present at the time of the dive. Currents at the surface and bottom can be strong and there are some rules when diving this wreck. You may not remove any object from the wreck because it is considered a historic resource. **
