A whiz I am not! Akirawut himself (and his wife) has been a victim of my Porteau "wanderings"
For this dive I swam out to the Grant Hall, dropped down and decended to 80' then turned right and followed that depth contour. After a while I hit it. That's a bit of a longer route and there is a more direct bearing you can take off of the granthall amidships but I forgot it.
I have seen that breezeway in the debris field many times but never knew what it was until I did some research today. It was only on the video that I saw the doorway shape and hatch clearly and even the latches to dog them down. I also only realised that the circle on the foredeck was a former gun emplacement.
I wonder where more of the superstructure is. I don't think it's all there. There is some debris up slope to the SE of the Nakaya and I will have to check it out next time now that I know what it is I'm looking for.
