So this week has been good for the diving community at large. The first site is a coal barge in 20 feet of water on the north side of a hundred foot sunken dock. Located in Barrett’s bay on Wolfe Island this 5 min swim from shore from the boat launch. Lots of fish and fishing tackle litter the site.
The second site made open to the public was not my idea but that of the community at large Adam and his friends lined the Tinto and I-Ho sailboat on the south side of Cedar Island in 40 feet of water. The swim though is 20 mins between sites and quite uneventful I image with more exploration items around the dive will be added.
Now the latest find of course the old guard has stated they have been diving for years, even though they couldn’t find the site with Dan and I 7 years ago on Side Scan Sonar. This little gem is located 487 NNE from the Tug Johnson was brought to our attention again this weekend. Mistaken as a sub trainer it appears to be a lifting barrel for wreck recovery at the turn of the century. Now three new sites and 4 wrecks in all to see.
