That wreck on page 12 isn't real, is it??

According to Gilliam, it's in the Solomon Islands.

Any idea what the name of it is? I've never heard of a vertical wreck like that before.

The vertical boat looks like one I have dived a couple of times in the Solomon Islands. It is a tuna boat which apparently hit the reef on its first trip - can't imagine the skipper was too popular after that.

It rests against a more or less vertical reef wall and is interesting to look and is not a difficult dive. The bow is in maybe 4 m and the bottom of the wreck might be in 40 - 45 m or so and conditions have been very easy on the dives I have done. Can't remember the details exactly, or the name. I dived this wreck with the liveaboard Bilikiki and they would have more information. I have another photo here: New Images.

I really like Tech Diving Mag BTW and have read every issue.
