Hawaii Wreck Diving New Years Resolution

[akdeepdiver]

This year I made a new years resolution to dive all of the wreck dives in Hawaii. Below is the list of what I have compiled. If anyone knows of a wreck the I left off, please let me know so I can add to it. All are on Oahu unless otherwise mentioned.

Not sure if there is a Corsair off Maui, but the one I know of is out of Hawaii Kai.

You have four LCUs listed off Oahu. Do you know where they all are, or have you doubled up? The two I know of are out of Waianae...one at ~75' and one at 90'. I'm pretty sure there are two plane wrecks out of Waianae, too. The names I know them as are Airplane Ledge (I think this is the Beachcraft you already have on the list) and 29 Down (from some Disney show, I've been told).

I dove the Friendship last weekend. Drop me a pm if you'd like to join the next charter out there. We might be able to get Gabe and/or Drew to come along.

For the Big Island, in addition to the wrecks in Kailua Bay (The Naked Lady and The Predator) and the Airplane wreck by the KOA airport there are a couple of wrecks / debris fields at Mahukona: The steamship Kauai, and the anchors and debris from the Empire. The latter you would be better off using a scooter to go see.

Dr Lector has some video of his recent trip to the Friendship.......

When Drew is back in biz let's set it up. We could do a 3pm trip out of Kewalos and it will be a VERY TECHY EXPERIENCE! Good chance for Rebreather divers too????

My GoPro ate the video file from inside the fish hold, but I posted a couple of longish unedited clips from around the wreck's exterior. The crew's excellent anchor placement is on display there on the aft port corner! Of course, my need for a better Go Pro mount than 'boltsnap on a bungiee' is on display pretty much throughout.

There is one off hawaii kai (already dove it). There is also one of Maui, but from what I understand it is primarily a debris field since it broke up on impact with the water.

You're moving on these at a nice pace!

I'd forgotten you have this one -- Pacific Wings plane wreck - AKA YS-11 -- on here. It's really not much of a swim at all from the YO to get to it, I popped over there on Sunday. Next time we're on the YO we should take a kick over if you haven't hit it yet.
