Here is video one of my friends did of one of our recent dives on the Lowrance. This should help. She is a very large wreck. so unless you have a scooter, explore a small section of her. Just N of her is the Renegade. we have actually hot dropped on the Lowrance, and drifted/scootered to the Renegade. Another great wreck dive.

204 to the sand 160 to the deck.
First dive on it? Take it in... its more than 400 feet of shipwreck.

Thank you for that video link! I really liked the depth sub title, as well as a quick look at the puter. It helps alot with planning, i.e. if you are here and expect to see this, you are x deep. 3 wks and counting down.

Eric,
you are correct. One thing I will tell you is if you are hot-dropped, always pay attention to the depth. Deeper than you should be? swim west. Shallower? Swim East. typically we have a northbound current, so you will be dropped south of the wreck most of the time. If you dont mind me asking, who are you diving the Lowrance with?

Our band of local pirates will be invading pompano starting on the 2/9 being the first day of diving , I think the lowrance is on for 2/17. So it is not 3 wks it is 1!!!!. We have booked PDC. We have dove with them 2 years previous and have been treated very well. They go where we want as I think there are at least 6 of us at last count, not counting cave freinds who may drive down.

Well we finished up a 7 days of diving, and it was spectacular! Our final day got blown out for the RBJ/Corey, maybe next year. For anyone needing the info for planning. I saw alot on the Lowrance at 180', for the Sucre the chain was at the highest relief at 180, the deck was 190-197. Another great week at PDC.
