UM and MSU to Help Explore Ship

There is an article in the Detroit Free Press today about a man who believes he has found Le Griffon, the oldest sailing shop on the Great Lakes. It sunk in 1679, and there has been a mystery as to where it has been. However, there has also been a dispute between the man and the state as to who can claim the ship, and the French government has claimed the ship as well. The area still needs to be explored before anything can be done, and UM and MSU are among the schools to help.
