I have finally gotten around to editing the page for the wreck of the tanker PAPOOSE. For those that missed the article in WRECK DIVING MAGAZINE, a brief summary of the findings can be found at:

Mike...I dive off Cape Lookout being I live here....We now know...even though we're not sure...but we do believe...even though some still aren't convinced...that the Papoose is actually the Hutton and the Hutton is the Ario and the Papoose is sunk near Oregon Inlet. But if you come to Morehead or Beaufort and book a charter...and they tell you the trip is to the Papoose...it's still the same wreck they have been calling the Papoose...which is actually the Hutton. If you go to the Hutton you will be actually on the Ario...but don't confuse going to the Hutton and think you are going to the Papoose because the Papoose isn't the Papoose anymore...Remember it's the Hutton...In any event...Just wanted to make it a bit less confusing:) Might I suggest the Spar...
