History:

 
This wreck was discovered by Capt. Eric Takakjian and determined to be that of the James M. Hudson.  The wreck of is locally known as the Two Anchor Wreck or Coal Barge. 
 
This wreck is upright and most of the decking has collapsed.  The most notable feature of the wreck is the two anchors on the bow, hence the name.  This is a nice dive and typical of the area - mono, dragger net, easy snags, semi-intact wood barge.  It is rather large but still can be rounded in a dive if the visibility permits.
