Hi everyone,

For does of you who like wreck diving like me, here is what, in my opinion, would be the greatest dive!
The ship sits in about 230 feet...

""Lefort - Russian wooden battleship (ship of the line), sunk in 1857
Some clips from working materials, obtained during two research expedition to famous Lefort: Russian wooden ship of the line accidentally sunk during storm in gulf of Finland in 1857 year with all hands lost - approx. 900 persons. That was 2nd biggest disaster in Baltic sea during peace period (1st one was Estonia ferry). Shipwreck was found during research expedition in 2013.""

Here is the link to the video: https://vimeo.com/111006072

Definitely worth looking at!!
