Sunken vessel off Milford CT (VIDEO)

[squalus357]

Last March when we were going crazy (because we couldn't dive) We found some anomalies off of milford. Here is one of those anomalies that turned out to be a Wreck. Big fish towards the end (Tautog). Its not a pretty dive but we pulled it off as best we could.

Had no idea scuba diving even existed off of Milford CT! Congrats on the find.

Great video. Loved the narration.

Would pretty much rather get root canal than do that dive, so I'm glad you did it for me. : )

Actually there really isn't much. I have done a few experimental dives off Merwin Point, and it was better visibility than you see in this video, but not by much. great for collecting lead, though. I usually head up to RI.

This isn't the best illustration for diving in Milford. Diving closer to shore is much different. Again it has to do with the bottom. This dive was a super soft muddy bottom. Compare it to this dive with a sandy bottom with more sunlight.

The Sound can be fickle. You have to find the sweet spot.

Yes, it is called Rhode Island

I do enjoy your videos, though (I grew up on the sound and my first couple of years of diving were all off of Bridgeport).
