NICE!!! I forgive you V...actually you could have gotten away with a lot more for that site. Thanks for sharing that one with us, I have a feeling it will be quite useful for a number of us here.

This is a definite "MUST HAVE". However, do not dismiss a wreck simply because the survey comments point to something that may be modern. We dove on a site last week that was listed in 1987 as a 30ft X 30 ft. area of platform debris, however it is in fact a wooden ship approx. 150'X30'. The dimensions reported on the NOAA survey appear to be an area of relatively intact decking that could possibly prove to be the forecastle of the wreck. The remainder of the wreck is mostly buried deep in the mud.

I hope you don't mind if I get a little excited anyway. Info in the public domain is one thing. Info acted upon is another :)
