Couple of guys in Cornwall

[Dan Dan the Scuba Man]

I dont quite remember the names of these two people, but there is a VERY popular wreck just outside of Looe, Cornwall.

My father and I were on a fishing trip when a HORRID call came over the radio, Two lost divers, descended at 1:30 PM haven't surface yet... it was 2:30 PM and the divers on the fishing boat knew the worst had happened.

in the newspaper the next morning, the head line read; " Man and Wife died on WW2 wreck"

they had gotten snagged on the jagged edges on the wreck... ran out of air and drowned.

so to them, a memorial to the two poor souls forever entrapped on that wreck.

Would that be the James Egan Lane wreck? That is very sad indeed.

R.I.P, very sad. At least they went together.

No they died on HMS Scylla.

Sorry for posting so long after the event but I only just joined these forums and felt I should post the correct wreck name. RIP
