    Don.....
    Dive Centres in Oman are useless. they allways go to the same sites over and over and over again...

    They dont know any info on sites other then the onces they go..

    All Dive Centres websites in Oman, keep copying each other so there is no accurate data.

    I want you to read the explination on how to find few small wrecks and see for your self...

    here is a link for one
    http://oman.greatestdivesites.com/mu.../tug_and_barge

    the rest is copy cat from that one!!!

    check with lyolds of london (ship insurance)-- most all working vessels have to carry cargo insurance or no one will hire them to haul their cargoes -- risk of loss * when theses vessels wreck -- insurance pay offs on cargo / vessel are made.--the details you seek the insurance underwriter will have.
