Hi to my Northern Cousins!!

We were supposed to be diving the C.B.Benson off Port Colburn this morning. We had two similar but different sets of GPS coordinates. also one of us had read somewhere that the wreck was moored.

We may have had the wrong numbers
Maybe it isn't moored (yet?).
The DM and a buddy went down at the "supposed" spot and found nothing but bottom.
We spent a couple hours watching the bottom graph while combing the area, and didn't find it. :(

A group of us would really like to dive this wreck,

Does anybody have GPS coordinates from 1st hand experience (not from a book or a website, unless you've confirmed them ;))

If you would be willing to share them, on the board or in a PM to me, My freinds and I would be eternally Gratefull!!:)

It wasn't a totaly wasted day, we dived the Tonawanda on the way back in!:D

Thank you!!
 
The numbers in my old GPS are:

42-46.262 N
79-14.609 W

However, these are not WAAS confirmed and when last I dove this... several years back... There was an SOS buoy on it.

What numbers do you have by the way?
 
I don't have them right now, My freind who was acting DM today has them.
I should be able to get them from him sometime tonight!

Thanks for the quick reply!!
