What a lovely lovely dive. Little bit dark underwater but the viz was pretty good and with torches the wreck stood out wonderfully. Lots of sea cucumbers but sadly not mating this time around.
The shot was right by the 4 metre diameter boilers and right in the middle of the wreckage which is pretty flattened around the boilers. Loads of great bits to poke our heads into. Found a chunky conger at one point underneath a large metal sheet with lots of pretty fan coral on it.
Found what could either have been the engine or a very large winch. There was also a strange half circle thing that looked like it might rotate.
When we reached our no stop time we headed up since it was pretty chilly for Eric in his semi dry since he had ripped the seal off on Saturday.
Lovely dive and definitely glad to get out despite the chilly weather and rain. Then into the pool for a dip before a pub dinner. .... Top easter Sunday!
