Site Description The Syracuse is broken but most of the sides and bottom are extant on site along with part of the stern deadwood standing upright. There is a centerboard, capstan, and part of the windlass which lies in the side wreckage near the bow also extant on site. It is very difficult to tell but there appears to be part of an inverted hogging arch embedded in the starboard side of the hull (meaning the arch arches downward rather than upward).
