Java Sea Wrecks

[Arbu]

Does anyone have any information on the history of the following wrecks in Indonesia? I think they're all Japanese WWII wrecks. I dived them around ten years ago but never found out much about them. They are:

1. North of Karimujawa Archipelago. 5 deg 40 min 50 sec south, 110 deg 30 min 44sec east. Large warship at around 50m depth.
2. Off Ujung Pandang. 5 deg 5 min 34 sec south, 119 deg, 17 min 10 sec east. 40m depth.
3. Off Ujung Pandang again. 5 deg 6 min 43 sec south, 119 deg 19 min 56 sec east. 30 m depth.

Would be interested in any info you have.

Check with Vidar who runs the mv Empress. probably one of the most knowledgeable captains on wrecks in the area (based in Singapore but covers South China Sea down to Java Sea). His email contact is in the following website.
