About Mv Captain Keith Tibbetts

This scuba dive consists of a wreck which was intentionally sunk in 1996 as an artificial reef.This vessel now lies in an area where she has been broken a bit via Nor'Wester which has now left a few areas which divers can penetrate. Located near to the bow of the wreck there is a sandy area which leads to some corals as well as an interesting wall and a drop off.The wreck and wall combination provide an interesting scuba dive in an area which is quite rich in both coral and fish life.

Dive Site Hazards

  • Edge-Accelerated Currents — Currents often strengthen along drop-off edges.

  • Depth Perception Distortion — Visual contrast can distort perceived depth.

  • Terrain-Induced Descent — Divers may unintentionally follow terrain downward.

  • Deceptive Entry Openings — Openings may become restrictive inside due to angle, collapse, or corrosion.

  • Surge-Induced Internal Silt Shift — Internal surge can move silt and debris without direct contact.

  • Partial Overhead Environment — Many wrecks limit direct ascent even without full penetration.

  • Fine Rust Particle Silt-Out — Disturbed rust particles can rapidly reduce visibility.
