12 September 2005 Joys, Sturgeon Bay
(September 12, 2005)

At the group's morning meeting, Dr. Rodgers discussed the possibility that the Sunset Park wreck may not be the Joys. Several historical documents about the Joys do not match up with the recordings taken.

Brian (Port 30-40), Michelle (Port 40-50), and Stephanie (Port 50-60) continued mapping the collapsed hull and forecastle planking that was lying across the frames in their units. Sami began mapping a new section (Starboard 50-60). Tiffany was allocated two sections (Port 60-70 and 70-80). Dina finished mapping her section (Starboard 20-30) and moved to a new section (Starboard 40-50). Adam continued to map his section (Starboard 30-40).

By the end of the day divers were working on, and completing, mapping the forward half of the vessel.
