USS Strength was a minesweeper that was pulled out of regular service and used for salvage training by the Navy for several years - they'd sink her and float her and sink her and float her... when she finally wore out she was hauled about 5 miles out and sunk for good as an artificial reef. Opal tore her into three pieces and now she's starting to collapse as she rusts away. The day this shot was taken there was a layer of exceptionally clear water down to deck level, with a very silty layer from there down to the bottom. If you look near the deck you can see the "fog" of the silty layer rolling along the deck - gives the whole shot an etherial look I like. I saw the shot but didn't have a camera so I hauled my buddy to the spot to take it - and he did a very nice job indeed, didn't he?av8er23:That is some pretty impressive vis for PCB. where can i find out more information on this particular wreck? Did you buddy say what the vis was that day?
