We go by an old fishing boat to the dive site and as soon as we jump into the water we could see the wreck! We descended straight downward to the wreck straight away. Then we penetrate the wreck according to our dive instructors instructions, from the stern to the prow.
We needed to use our flashlights in one part of the wreck since it was quite dark. In the darkness some sort of big grouper lurked. Outside of the wreck Linda did the Titanic move at the prow and of course I had to follow her example! I did see a squid at the bottom as well - but it was to quick for my camera.
As we are about 30 meters of the wrecks port side we hear a strange sound and turn to the wreck. There we can see a ship that is stuck with it's anchor to the ship, trying to pull loos in every possible direction. We tried to swim to the most favorable spot for not getting hit by the anchor.
