The vessel had several owners during her first decade, and by 1909 she was under Norwegian ownership and named ''Aggie Norge''. On May 3, 1915 she was under tow by the ''Edgar Vance'', bound for Sweden from San Francisco, with a cargo of 600 tons of beans and 2500 tons of barley. Just out of San Francisco, the vessels encountered a storm, and the ''Edgar Vance'' released ''Aggi''. In the next few days, ''Aggi''’s cargo shifted, and on May 4, the storm tossed her on the shore off Santa Rosa Island. Captain Ira Eaton rescued the crew and brought them to Santa Barbara, while ''Aggi'' Captain Anskar Olsen remained aboard with his first mate. Santa Barbara’s Flying A Film Company was taken to the wreck site by Captain Rosaline Vasquez aboard ''Otter'' to film the shipwreck.

She was headed to Sweden, laden with 600 tons of beans and 2,500 tons of barley. All 20 of her crew survived, though the first mate, Hans Thormadsen, “became insane in Chicago on his way home to Norway,” according to the Santa Barbara Morning Press. “This is attributed to his severe experiences while this ship was battered by the storm.” Two weeks later, the Universal Film Company purchased the wreck with intentions of using it as an underwater set. Santa Barbara sailor Scott Cunningham, however, expressed doubt that the ''Aggi’s'' broken remains would stand up to the continuing bad weather. “They’ll have to hurry up with their moving pictures,” Cunningham told the Morning Press. “The wreck will soon be only a dream — and you can’t photograph a dream.” He turned out to be right, as the sea soon knocked the ''Aggi'' into even smaller scraps useless for filming. In 1967, a dive boat operator named Glenn Miller pulled up one of the ''Aggi’s'' two massive anchors and donated it to the Santa Barbara Historical Society, where it remains today. The move stirred some controversy. A letter writer to Pacific Underwater News called Miller an “incurable wreck picker” and asked, “Does Captain Miller really believe that the landlubbers visiting the Santa Barbara Historical Society will appreciate the big anchor as much as skin divers did visiting it in 40 feet of water?” ”</ins></div></td></tr> </table>

By Glenn Miller. Captain, Motor Vessel ''Emerald''. To me there is nothing more rewarding and fun than snooping around a boat, particularly if it's sunk, and especially if it's an old one. A feeling that I believe is shared by most divers whether sport divers or old time professional hard hat types. The wreck I'm going to tell about is one of the finest classical wrecks of an old time ship that hasn't been picked to pieces (as of this writing I was the only one who knew where it was and how to relocated it again) on the California coast. As with most wrecks it was by pure accident. I had a group of divers out on a lobster dive on those fabulous lobster reefs known as Talcott Shoals off the northwest end of Santa Rosa Island. The second I dropped the pick, four or five divers hit the water so fast that I didn't know which hit bottom first, the divers or the anchor. Anyway, about a minute after they went in they were back with tales of wreckage strewn (literally) all over the bottom. It seems I'd anchored right on top of an old uncharted wreck. I couldn't get my gear on fast enough, and after ripping one <del style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">lg</del>, cursing the zipper and myself for not spraying it with silicone, forgetting my weight belt, (you can probably already tell that wrecks don't stoke me much), I got down on it.

Little did I realize that she was a four masted barque over 320 feet long, that had hit this reef some fifty-two years ago. After I got back to Santa Barbara I did some research on it and found that she was the ''Aggie'' out of Australia, bound for San Pedro with a load of wheat when she met her untimely end in 1915. After a while the wind came up and we had to get out of there, and with the wind came the fog as it does so often around Santa Rosa and San Miguel Islands. I'd been having such a ball exploring the wreck that I hadn't bothered taking any landmarks so I could come back to it, and now with the fog rolling in it was too late. You have to bear in mind that this reef is a mile and a half off Santa Rosa Island. It took me six weeks to find that wreck again. When I relocated it again I used a sextant, taking horizontal bearings.

Stop the boar dead in the water and take your shots fast, then plot yourself in on a chart. If you do it right, it's as accurate a fix as you can get with a surveyor's transit, but I won't go into details here as the average diver doesn't own a sextant. Well, that day we took six fixes, getting closer each time, until I told Dick Anderson, my diving cohort, that the wreck was about a hundred yards straight in from us, and do you know it was, much to the amazement of Dick. We were on top of it again. If you can figure out the instructions under the chart you can dive into the past on an honest to God square rigged ship wreck. Incidentally, this area has the best lobster diving that I know of. Last trip out, there were twenty divers of which I'd say only half were experienced, who caught 136 bugs with an average weight of 5-1/2 pounds.”</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br/></td><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br/></td></tr> <tr><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br/></td><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br/></td></tr> <tr><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br/></td><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br/></td></tr> <tr><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="−"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #ffe49c; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>'''1967 Pacific Underwater News]:''' “Mystery of the Missing Anchor & A Favorite Letter.
