Viewing the insides of wrecks is different. You should have alot of confidence in your ability, and the tools to do it correctly and safely. It goes with out saying you should have some training. If an opening looks too small, or you have any questions ask your self if it's worth it. I got stuck on The Boland in Lake Erie at 130 feet. I had questions. By the time I said it wasn't worth it, it was to late. My partner who was smaller went in first. I was content to watch because of the size of the opening. I lost sight of him and went in a little to see if he was ok. I was 4 ft. in and hung up with doubles. The reel saved me ultimately. I dumped my air from my BC and dry suit and sat there until I settled in a chocolate cloud. I un clipped my 50-100 %bottlesand set them in front of me as I moved rearward. 5 minutes later I was free. I had my gear and life back. My dry suit was all covered with rust. My partner was behind me, little did I know. He had gone through some how and circled around. I am very choosey these days!
