I just don't log dives
I have a topo map of lake Tablerock. The dive shop (Indian point marina) marked the location of some dives sites on it for me. These included the cabin cruiser, the Zebulon, and the enchanted forest.

Scuba sports, from Branson, has the Lat/Lon coordinates of these same points listed on their website. I went to google earth (AWESOME program) which shows the lat/lon for what ever place you are "pointing" to. The locations from ScubaSports sites don't match up with google earth. SS's numbers point to places way far away, at least 1/4 mile in some cases.

Has anyone recorded their own GPS numbers at any of these spots that can confirm or dispute SS's numbers?

PS- if you have google earth, zoom in on Jakes Point Island. Is that the cabin cruiser visible just to the SW of the island? Since I didn’t dive the cruiser, I don't know its location or orientation. On another note, the marker ball for the Indian point marina wreck is visible.
