Lake Minnetonka Sunken Steamboats - keldiver - 07-09-2014

Does anyone know where the two remaining steamboats are located in Lake Minnetonka? I'd really like to see them and since there is no wake on the lake, it might be a good time to do it. If anyone knows where they are and are interested in checking them out with me, that would be great. I have a 19' runabout to get us out there if we need a boat. If there are other interesting places to dive on that lake, I'd be up for seeing those also. Smile

fri-sunday i would avoid the lake even with no wake. ive seen sailboats out that are going fairly fast .
also vis is not that great this year with all the surface run off. lots of algae covering shallows without the typical waves to keep clean.
8ft vis? better in spots to 15ft
