Water Type: Salt
Entry Type: Boat
Very large wreck, over 300’. There are 3-4 mooring lines, we tied up to the one between the pilot house and forward turret. This is the area we focused on since we only had a single AL 80cf bottle. This dive is best suited for twins or rebreathers to maximize your time on the wreck, and you will need multiple dives to explore both the inside and outside. She lays on her port side, which has reduced the number of access points to the interior and it can be disorienting if you aren’t experienced with wreck penetration. Great dive, and with only a 30 minute boat ride to the site you can’t beat it.
