Here is a short report I did on our trip along with some photos and videos. As stated in the report, the trawler in the video is not the one on Carpet Cove, but is at a nearby site called Joe's Best. It is a newer wreck, is in much better condition, and sits on the lower side of a coral head at about 85 fsw. It sits at an angle with the stern a little deeper than the bow.
Just keep in mind that seeing wildlife is rather hit or miss and a case of being in the right place at the right time. My wife did get to see her first octopus while there and other divers reported seeing things that I did not see. Even my wife, who was right beside me during dives, has asked once we got on the boat if I saw such and such and of course I didn't. And the opposite is true also that I've seen things others didn't. And that's happened just about everywhere I've ever dived.
ETA: Just past the 5:00 mark of the shark dive video, you can see the huge grouper that @tarponchik mentioned.
