How cool! I know there are a bunch on sketchfab (a 3D marketplace), which is, it seems, what the Vrak museum is using to host their models. An account from the Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary has a series of Great Lakes shipwrecks: https://sketchfab.com/thunderbaynms/collections/shipwrecks There's a near-endless flow of 3D work to look through, but here are some other notable wrecks I've come across on the site that you might enjoy: https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/sandusky-model-higher-res-a4f630827353445c89b017d4abe1b5f9 https://sketchfa

I haven't been able to find any stories about the wreck in English yet, but here are a few Dutch sources... wonderful stuff! NorthSeaDivers log for the wreck site, short summary of the location and identification of the ship including a useful outline of the remaining wreck overlaid on Apollo's draught: https://www.northseadivers.nl/logboek/219-his-majesty-s-ship-apollo-1794.html?fbclid=IwAR2o1jGVn7H0xNFaRuI9Cq3G-JO_7x17ptQlTnCZUTTOpxh6I-J7ztYm1_I There's a short video diving the wreck on this site: https://www.vrt.be/vrtnws/nl/2021/01/06/kanonnen-van-brits-o -

Hello Sperry, (Another new member here, though I've been lurking for a while. Going to introduce myself soon!) You might be interested in the visual references on the MOLA Deptford archaeology reports. The online versions include almost only technical talk, save a short historical background at the beginning, but there's a wealth of image references at the end: https://www.mola.org.uk/sites/default/files/downloads/Convoys%20Wharf%20post-ex%20assessment%20Part1.pdf That's the one which I think would be most useful for what you're after, but the other parts can be a

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
