Any details that we can see?
 
Dang it. So Sorry to hear this, just dove the Speigel last week with Horizen. And was in Marathon diving when the accident happened on the Vandy.
 
How do people dive a 130' deep wreck? Not single tank? What cert would be accepted for that?

130ft is the depth at the sand, the top is at around 60ft. Some of the major areas are less than 100ft. You can get to 150ft inside the wreck.
 
So an AOW diver will get to dive that wreck? and a confident OW diver will dive that also?

Well, rainbow reef dives it, and unless they changed something, pretty sure all their divers are running single tanks.
Plus, SG is within recreational NDL limits.

Yes
