New Wreck off Lahina

[fishb0y]

And of course the sail boat in the surf that hes been there for over two years now for a five foot deep wreck dive.

Funny story about that boat, a guy that I know used to own it.

The webpage says it was supposed to be sunk on Dec. 13. Anyone know if that happened yesterday??

Wonder who is going to make regular dives to the wreck.... wouldn't mind diving it when we're there in April....

Yes, it was in the Honolulu Advertiser today, pictures and all. I wonder if it will be divable right away. I'm coming to Maui for a weekend sometime in Feb or March and that would be cool to visit.

How far off shore is it?

 

[DiveMaven]

The website says 1/2 mile off Lahaina and in 95 feet of water.

so it's an "average" surface swim ehh? - I can't wait to dive it after seeing it sitting in the harbor for so many years.

Welcome back Tim! We missed you. Keep us posted on this new wreck...who is sending boats out to dive it, etc. I'd love to see it combined with Mala as a 2-dive combo....but then I love diving Mala Wharf.

I've crawled around below decks on it before so it's going to be cool to dive it. Can't wait and good to see you. Are you back on maui??? If so my buddy needs a friend as he's a DIR wannabe right now.
