About Black Jack

This dive site consists of a B17F, 4-engine plane wreckage which is located just off shore. It sank when it was involved in a crash landing on the 11 July 1943 when it was returning from an air raid. She currently sits upright next to a reef wall which is home to numerous coral formations. Due to the depths of this dive, one may not get the desired time to explore the wreck.
