Dove it today - June 29, 2008. The bottom was 120 but you do not need to go that far. The Vis was 50' plus. We could see the wreck from 40 feet. You could stay at 80 foot and see then entire wreck. The props are there but at about 105'. There is a large swim through at the bow at the anchor chain locker. My computer said the temp was 35 degree which I believe is impossible but it was f'in cold.

The wreck is collapsing on itself. You can see the railroad cars if you look. They are a little hard to recognize but if you think railroad car during the dive you will see them. At the stern you will see the sea gate that bent and was believed the cause of the sinking. there are great pix on the Nordic Diver site as mentioned above.

There is indeed a line from the bow to the pilot house but the pilot house is coming apart fast.

Make sure you have cold water regs. This is a serious dive because of the depth and cold.
