This dive is deep and does not come highly recommended. The wreck is almost upside down and lies on its port side. Although the hull is more or less intact and is contiguous it is impossible to explore at this depth (around 200 feet). The boilers (which spill out the port side of the wreck) are enormous. The stern is the highest point of the wreck and if you stand at the top with your back to the bow and look left into the sand you will see a large four bladed propeller. A possible explanation for the location of the propeller is that it was struck from the shaft when the ship first hit the bottom, stern first. One of the blades is bent slightly and the shaft is entirely sheared off. To reiterate, this wreck is very deep and is beyond the limits of sport diving.
