The World War II Wreck developed to be a beautiful artificial reef home to Moorish idols, banded sea krait, and coral groupers.

Trimix dive. This wreck is in 72m of water very intact except some damage to the rear fuselage and 1 propellor missing. The propellor likely broke off as a result of the engine over speed. A blue water dive and a must for trimix divers to tick off their bucket list.
