Off boat and swam between pinnacles at around 15m towards small reef with wreck on it. With reef on left hand side we found wreck 1/3rd of the way around. Prop was in 17m and half buried in sand; rudder visible. Went around stern and alone starboard side. Passed between reef and hull, back to stern and onto where deck used to be. Swam under ribs but nothing much to see.
Continued along reef to 1/2 way point. Saw one turtle rising off bottom. It rose to surface and joined a smaller one there.
Once we reached the second large pinnacle of coral we returned. On hitting the wreck again at around 10 m we were close to door way to toilet and engine room. Tempted to enter but it looked a bit cramped. A lot of glass fish inside.
Continued around reef and found a large overhang with large bat fish inside. Left reef for swim across to main reef and boat. Nice one.
