About this site
The Prins Willem V is a wreck in Lake Michigan off Milwaukee, Wisconsin, resting near the coordinates given on the Michigan side of the lake's shipping lanes. It was a Dutch freighter that sank in the mid twentieth century after colliding with another vessel near the harbor entrance. The hull lies broken on the lake bottom in cold, dark freshwater, and dives here are typically run out of Milwaukee-area charter operations. Freshwater conditions in this part of Lake Michigan tend to be cold year round with limited light penetration at depth.
