Yo ho ho....what a show! With the exception of water temp today's shipwreck swim may quite possibly have been the most sensational show ever. The water was crystal clear, the surface was calm and the sand that typically covers sections of the wreck appeared to have been recently swept away. The entire massive hull of the Appomattox was clearly visible and easy to follow. According to my GPS visiting the site required less than a 1/4 swim...and if you/re daring enough (...like Kahuna and I...) swimming down to walk the plank requires you to plunge only about 10ft. (...a challenging feat indeed when you're wearing a wetsuit...)
Following today's swim the entire Kru enjoyed a delicious BBQ Chicken and/or Rib lunch, a few pints of grog and live music....all compliments of the Shorewood Men's club.

I think it was far more than 10 ft. below the surface. I would guess certainly more than 20 feet, and probably more than 25. An awesome site.
Jealous! See you guys tomorrow!
Any underwater photos?
