BAILEYS HARBOR, Wis. - After more than a century at the bottom of Lake Michigan, an elusive shipwreck has been found, according to the Wisconsin Underwater Archeology Association .

The boat, named the F.J. King, was thought to have been lost during a powerful storm in September 1886, but it was only recently located near the Wisconsin -Michigan border with the help of sonar and remotely operated vehicles.

According to the association, the 144-foot wooden vessel sailed for 19 years before breaking apart, with pieces of debris spotted by lighthouse keepers and fishermen in the days and weeks after the sinking.
