Any thoughts on this wreck?

This is one of the better wrecks to dive on. Slight pentration and has a little history about it. Also, if you have enough air there are 2 other wrecks close to it.
Definitely recommend it.

Dive Safely.

Nice wreck. Lies in about 70 feet of water. For me - the engine room penetration was interesting - but I'm more a reef person. The Sea Emperor is an easy swim to the North (current permitting). The rock pile will lead you right to it. Popular with the local dive boats especially Sunday AM with training dives. There's been alot of feeding going on there and the critters have come to expect it. Last dive - just me and my wife - two decent sized rays were swimming all over us looking for a handout.

I dove it a couple of months ago - very nice wreck. Here's a site sketch and some other info. Hope it helps:

Thank you for your info. I hope it's not too rough out there this weekend.

Good luck! Be sure to post a trip report in the Private Trips folder after your dive.

Have a great dive. This is a fun dive. There is a Jewfish and if you look around, you will see a large Green Moray and lots of Southern Stingrays. You will probably see a couple of Nurse Sharks as well.

Enjoy and post a report.

I'll definitely post a report. Can't wait! I'm a little nervous since this is only my 7th dive and it's a little deep (for me at least), but I'm sure it will be a lot of fun!

Just remember to take things slow and easy, and make sure your dive master knows your experience level so that he/she can advise you.

Have fun,
