Ramp Rubble Wreck


Local Name:

Ramp Rubble Wreck

Depth:

I'll have to get some input from Hal, but I suspect the depth here is approximately 50 feet like most things in this general area. If anyone know the depth, please send me an e-mail!

Anchoring:

I believe that this one may have been found from shore, so that may be an easy way to reach it. Again, if anyone knows a good way to dive this wreck, please drop me a note!

Notes:

Here's another wreck discovered by Hal Parker! Hal has found more wecks than any other individual I know! This wreck was found in summer of 2006.

A few words of caution are due here!

While I believe that this data is fairly accurate, one must apply some common sense when using this data. If the point of origin is a coral head, you may have anchored at a slightly different spot than I did and your bearing to the next attraction could be slightly different than mine. I suggest checking with your own GPS before rolling in!

Also, know roughly how fast you swim so that you know approximately how long it should take to reach the next attraction. You can (and likely will) miss things from time-to-time and you should know when to abort and turn around before you are too far from your boat.

I strongly urge you to try the shorter swims first and build your navigation skills. I have set the cutoff distance for this table to 750 feet, but that is a considerable challenge even for the best navigators. An error of more than a few degrees in poor visibility and you can easily miss your destination at the extreme ranges!
