The Shipyard

Description:

The Shipyard so named due to there being not only one wreck but two wrecks dive-able on the same dive, one is a near vertical wreck whilst the 2nd lies horizontal on its side. The vertical wreck (The Skipjack 2) is proud of the surface by 6M and bottoms

Notes:

Currents can be strong, misleading and changeable, particularly in the gap between the reef and the keel of the vertical wreck, indeed several members of our team were carried away only to be safely collected by the RIB, so don?t forget your SMB.
