Favorite Wreck

[dwright]

What is your favorite wreck to dive and why? Is it the Carribe Sea because of the sharks? Or maybe it's the Schurz because of the ammo locker. The U-352? The Papoose? Let's hear from everybody.

hum ok maybe my faverite is U 352 but it has got times of some sterong currents but a great dive most of time it ends up being a deco dive for me even if i dont plan on it lol

The Normannia is my favorite NC Wreck. It is far enough offshore that most of the googans don't go there, it is deep enough to keep other googans away, and the vis is usually off the scale wild. I think that everytime I go there we see hundreds of different species of fish(including the typical Sandtigers, Sandbar, and Nurse Sharks), there are spineys sometimes, and slippers, and artifacts still to be found.

I have been on the Papoose, Hutton, Indra, and the 352 up there in Morehead land, but I always love to come back home to the Hyde, Gill, Cassimir, Nashville, Houston, Hyde, Markham, Dredge, and especially the Normannia.

I think I liked the U-352 the best.

Hi Tom,

Which operator do you like for those wrecks?

Hi Tom,

We usually go out there on my dive buddy's private boat, but as far as charters go, I have only used Aquatic Safaris. (910)392-4fun or www.aquaticsafaris.com. They are pretty experienced with the Normannia runs.

Top three wrecks for me

1) Far East Tanker (Tamapaluis)
2) Naeco (bow)
3) tie- Naeco (stern) and Esso Nashville

Why? as was mentioned above, they're far enough out to keep too many people from picking them clean...
