  • Die L. R. Doty war ein amerikanisches Frachtschiff, das am 25. Oktober 1898 während eines Sturms auf dem Lake Michigan unterging. Zuletzt wurde sie nördlich von Milwaukee (Wisconsin) gesehen. Dabei kamen alle 17 Besatzungsmitglieder ums Leben. Das Schiff schleppte das Passagierschiff , bis das Schleppseil durch die Stärke des Sturms riss und sich beide Schiffe aus den Augen verloren. Es wird vermutet, dass das Schiff überladen war und daher einen hohen Tiefgang hatte. Am 25. Juni 2010 wurde die L. R. Doty in etwa 91 m Tiefe im Lake Michigan gefunden. Die Getreideladung war immer noch vorhanden. (de)

Seventeen crew members died. On June 25, 2010, 112 years after her loss, divers found the Doty 300 feet (91 m) below the surface of Lake Michigan with its cargo of corn still intact. The first divers to reach and film the Doty were Tracy Xelowski, John Scoles and John Janzen. Coincidentally, seven years later on September 30, 1905, the L.R. Doty's sister ship the Iosco also sank while towing the Olive Jeanette. However, on this occasion both vessels were lost to the waters of Lake Superior. (en)
