Welcome to the Beavertail Lighthouse Museum Association’s (BLMA) shipwreck data base. This database contains over 3400 maritime events that have taken place in Rhode Island waters from Colonial times to present day. Each event is a story in itself providing the reader with historical information gleaned from hundreds of archival sources.
Each event is accompanied by a detailed description of the vessel(s) involved and related information.
The creation of the BLMA data base was begun in 2008 by Jim Jenney, BLMA Maritime Historian and Varoujan Karentz, BLMA Board Member and local historian.
