Hello all!
Here is a quick video of the popular Kittiwake wreck dive just off the west coast of Grand Cayman! From its history as a submarine support vessel to the vertigo you feel the first time you enter its hull due to it being on its side, it is quite the experience! If you are comfortable going through the engine room at the bottom, it is highly recommended.
For anyone wondering, I went out with Dive Tech Grand Cayman and could not have had a better time. Great crew and owner!

Nice video. I had fun on the Kittiwake, and the vertigo is real!
Sorry your thread got hijacked.

Fabulous video and music. Looks professional.
 
i feel it is absolutely the Dive Masters responsibility to ensure his/her customers are navigating and safely moving thru the Kittiwake.
I agree, except that you also need to accept some responsibility for your own navigation and safety, and that you are properly equipped for the dive.
Is your profile is correct? It says you have been certified more than ten years and have fewer than 24 dives. That means you are really a basic, inexperienced, almost new diver, and should probably be taking a refresher course, not doing a penetration dive on a wreck.
On the other hand, it is possible that your post is just hyperbole, because I do not think there is any area on that swim-through dive that is in total darkness with no light coming in through the many exists.
