The following from Lynnhaven's site:
John Morgan. (110 fsw) A 7,176 ton Liberty ship sunk on its maiden voyage on June 1, 1943 after colliding with the SS Montana. The John Morgan was loaded with lend-lease cargo which included trucks, motorcycles, P-39 airplanes, 10 Valentine tanks and tons of assorted weapons. This is one of the most interesting wrecks off of the Virginia coast to explore.
Ricks. (80 fsw) An intact fishing trawler sitting upright. The wreck is covered with all kinds of marine life. This is a good wreck for u/w photography.
Hanks. (70 fsw) A clam dredge that sank in rough seas southeast of Rudee Inlet. The wreck is intact and upright with a slight list to port. This is a fun wreck to dive.
