Kure Atoll
In 2002 the wreck of a 19th century whailing ship was found at Kure Atoll. This wreck was further explored in 2005, 2006, and 2008; it is thought it may be the wreck of the sailing ship "Parker". The "Parker" was a whaling ship that wrecked on Kure Atoll in 1842. (the crew was rescued after a few months)
