"It's cool, it's the first time for me seeing a wreck," says Alexandre Geravel, one of the participants.According to map charts provided by the group, there are about a dozen sites near downtown Ottawa where shipwrecks might be found. The goal was to find at least four.

The students boarded three boats equipped with shipwreck maps, nautical charts, and sonar. Their science teacher, Jean-Marc Perreault, led the mission. "We need to get out of the classroom to live more experiences than what we can show on the white board," he says."The experience; like, all the experience, I hope I will remember it because it's something really nice and I don't want to forget," says Geravel.
