That looks like the ballast rock piles from the Rhoda. It is back by the entrance to Ft. Pickens in about 30 ft. of water.

I checked with the folks at UWF. The wreck IS the British Bark Rhoda. She was built in Quebec in 1864 and sank in Pensacola during a storm in 1882. She carried timber, primarily.

Heck if you can find structure like that it may be well worth it.
I'd love to see pics of the I-10 bridge rubble.
