Sounds like they need permanent moorings for the wrecks in that area - good for the wreck, good for the divers.

Permanent mooring adjacent to "the busiest shipping channel in the world." Hmm... let's think about what could be wrong with that idea.
Retards... in the water and on the boat.. What can you say?
Telling divers to unhook the anchor at the start of their dive?
Actually following the boat operator's direction of unhooking the boat from the wreck and expecting it to stay there?
Swim down an anchor line to sand and then follow a furrow to the wreck and do a deco dive?
Shorten up a deco stop to do what? Look around? (Much better to stay down).
Hit the surface with skipped deco, experience pain .. and not descend with oxygen and tell your buddy to hold onto your float?
Going inside the boat and making lunch and not, at a minimum setting an anchor alarm on the GPS?

Yes. I was wondering why they don't do that?
3. Assuming it would be a surface mooring, it then becomes a beacon for every yahoo around to dive what is already a dangerous wreck. Not need to invite more trouble than already exists.
Around here there are a couple of wrecks that certain dive shops want to keep "private", and their mooring is about 4 feet under the surface.
