Gavutu F4F Wildcat (Wreck)
★★★★☆
(5)
Thought to be the aircraft flown (and ditched) by WW2 pacific air ace Lt James Swett, this aircraft lies on a sandy bottom at 42m. As is common with most aircraft, the propellor is missing and the engine cowling has fallen off. A wonderful wreck best dived at the slack tide.
Very silty site with trevelly and snapper living around it. A resident painted crayfish lives by the starboard undercarriage.
