World Shipwrecks

[seal]

To whom it mat concern.

I am compilling my own database of shipwrecks around the world, but I'm having quite a few difficulties finding information about shipwrecks around America excluding California and Alaska. And also Canada.

Is there anyone who can help me with finding information on shipwrecks in America and Canada.

Thankyou
