Typical Hazards & things to watch out for
|
|
- Descend close to shore and ascend close to shore. Boats and PWC are in the area.
- If you access the site from close to the southern point in the parking lot, you can swim roughly 50' off the shore
along the bottom and you will come upon a line. Follow this line out to the wreck. Once you reach the wreck, it
becomes easy to lose the line. Pay attention to where you are.
