In this special lecture, Bob Cembrola will discuss the history of the four Frigates that British forces scuttled and burned along the western shore of Aquidneck Island in 1778 to prevent their capture by the French fleet. Bob's experience diving on such a historically significant site convinced him to spend his professional career pursuing other shipwrecks.
