W 080° 13.516’ Key Largo Fl. H.M.S. Winchester is a 933 ton British man-of-war that sank in 1695 after running aground on Carysfort Reef. Most of this 145 foot ship is encrusted with coral making it difficult to locate, and there are no mooring buoys marking this wreck. Very little remains of the vessel, but ballast stones from the River Thames, cannon balls, and pins can still be found on the site. Depth is 15fsw to 28fsw. The Winchester is approximately 1.5 miles southwest of Carysfort Light. GPS Location: N 25° 12.178’ W 080° 13.516’
