Lubrifoil Dive (deep air) Daytona Beach

[bristolxyz]

Although I live and dive in this area, I have had a hard time getting detailed information about a deep wreck called the "Lubrafol". Divers from my area dive it every year and are scheduling a dive in Sept. ( from a 42 ft custom newton dive boat). We are about 2 hours from the wreck. I am looking for detailed information, particularly photos and maybe details of the sinking. Maybe names of personel aboard prior to sinking, etc.. just any information I can get about the wreck. All comments would be appreciated.

Warm regards,

Paul

I like the part in his trip report: "the water was very cold, almost 50"
