About High Seas Wreck
The High Seas was originally built in San Pedro in 1945 and served as a wooden hulled Yard Patrol Craft. After her service in the war, she was sold and later converted into a Purse Seine Fishing Vessel. In 1970 while enroute back home, her stern opened up and she sank with a full load of tuna on board. Over the years she has deteriorated alot. With her remains scattered all over the cean floor, the High Seas still makes a excellent dive with lots to see and explore. Abundant marine life and corals envelope this wreck.
