Thanks for the info. Made the dive today, great dive. Vis was 25-30 ft, 54F, 42ft, propeller is cool, biggest one I have seen Fun dive, apparently there are usually some good sized fish there, but we did not see them today, no deck, an anchor lying near by and because it's not too deep, you can hang out for awhile.
