Description:The Normannia is one of the prettiest wrecks off of North Carolina. Generally, it lies on it keel and is contiguous. The bow and stern are relatively intact and provide the greatest relief. The middle section is flat and open. The wreck site is easy to navigate on and wreck can be covered in one dive with a little bit of concentration. Old bottles are still being found at various parts of this wreck.
The Diver Down may not be the only boat in Morehead City, but for the best in customer appreciation and out and out fun Diver Down is the only boat to go out on. Go out when the others stay at home, and see more than just the in shore wrecks like Olympus takes you too. DIver down gives you two off shore wrecks to pick from a day. Not a better captain, crew or boat will you find anywhere!!!! Signed a permanent Diver Down Customer
