Hello and welcome to another episode of Ohio Mysteries Backroads. In tonight's episode we are joined by friend of the show Wendy Koile, author of 4 fantastic books. We discuss the mysterious Toledo Speedboat disaster of 1930. On a hot Saturday morning in June, 1930, eight Toledoans set out on a speedboat to attend an Elks picnic on Pelee Island and never made it. Their boat would be found spinning in circles without a soul onboard. The well to do men would be found dead a few days later and rumors began to circulate about what happened and who was responsible. In our next story, we explore the long history of the Ghost Ship of the Ohio River, the Sachem. This luxury liner has a very long history of entertaining many well to do of the East Coast elite as well as serving the military where Thomas Edison conducted experiements to bootlegging, to fishing charters to sight seeing touring and a wild journey through the middle of the country to where it sits today, at a tributary off of the Ohio River. Join us and learn all about these crazy stories!
