New wreck in Sea of Cortez

[BB`]

How deep (shallow) is it?

Highest point was ~5ft and deepest point is 55ft where it sits on the sandy bottom.

With as shallow as they put this it’s going to get interesting when the first large storm rolls through…

WOW that is shallow!

The antenna already has been hit by a boat. The bottom is at about 60 feet.

We dove this wreck again today. Since last year some winter storms have broken the ship into three big pieces. It's an even better dive now!

I was out there about a month ago and WOW it is a totally different dive than the first time.


The front is a total delight to do light penetration to swim from the back of the wheel house up through the stern. The dedication sign is totally hidden unless you know where to look for it.
The engine room is a fun spot to play but the very rear top deck entrance where the map used to be is filling with silt amazingly fast.
