Matle Posted March 15, 2021 #1 Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) Apologies if posted already - I do not visit often. Technology is taking leaps currently, and scanning and modelling (the computer kind) now enable the existance of armchair wreck divers. The Swedish digital wreck museum has uploaded a couple a while ago. I had somehow missed them and thought I’d share. The Anna Maria, a fluyt from the first decade of the 18th century: https://www.vrakmuseum.se/en/wrecks-and-remains/shipwrecks/anna-maria An unidentified wreck, probably another fluyt from the same time: https://www.vrakmuseum.se/en/wrecks-and-remains/shipwrecks/jutholmsvraket The 3D models are towards the bottom of the pages, and you can freely move around in them. The colouring and lighting appear to be designed to give the feeling of actually diving. Has anyone has seen any more? Edited March 15, 2021 by Matle ccoyle, Rik Thistle, druxey and 1 other 4 Quote

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://sketchfab.com/3d-models/defiance-96fdd59a180644dfb36bfcedc2f64a65 https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/daniel-j-morrell-double-wheel-stern-3073a4c133b1423db2ed0bd30de551d3 Quote
