Diver's Notes

Dive from main boat

No decompression time was exceeded slightly, and I skipped swimming on the 'hull' side to allow for a slow ascent and extended safety stop (this was not actually indicated by my computer though)

Diving on Salem Express wreck, which is a strange feeling as it contains some human remains and is from a relatively recent accident.

Damage to the hull is visible.

Lifeboats are on the bottom beside the boat. Some personal possessions are visible, much has been hidden by steel plates. There is some fish life, but it is sparse. Coral is starting to grow on the structure
