Ainemman
Local Name:
Mike Boat
Depth:
Approximately 35 feet.
Anchoring:
This wreck lies almost under the starboard prop of the Prinz Eugen. On a calm day you can anchor nearby, but watch the wind. There isn't too much to catch your anchors on in this area until you get fairly shallow. More recently we have been anchoring on a corla head out away from shore a bit more and swimming around the Prinz Eugen. As we complete the loop we pass this wreck on the way back to our boat.

Notes:
This is just a little rubble wreck. In my opinion you can give this wreck all the time it demands as you pass by it doing a loop of the Eugen.

Nearby Attractions:
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!
