Your favorite New England wrecks

[NE_Diver]

Finally finished school and now it's time to enjoy some diving. I have been doing a lot of diving off the shores all around Rhode Island and I'm now interested in diving some of the local wrecks.

So what are some of your favorite wrecks around New England?

Grecian & Block Island Pinnacles The Grecian lies in a
depth of 100 feet. Visability is usually 20' or better making this an awesome
wreck dive followed by a dive on the Block Island Pinnacles. Must have an

bring c card or log book in when you sign up). Required equiptment: SMB or
safe-t-sausage, wreck reel, Whistle and light. Cost: $140.00 aboard Priority 2.

your reservation you forfeit the full payment. If our captain cancels the trip,
we issue a full refund if you paid in cash and a store credit if paid by credit
card. Cancellations by our Captain are made on the day of the charter, one hour

Endicott off plymouth...I have never dove it ...but have a friend who retrieved a bunch of cobble stones...about 90ft

The USS Bass...even though it gets canceled often(weather)
Then the U853. Not much deco and weather usually cooperates.

'The Old Cock' - barge sunk off the tip of Gooseberry Island in Westport, MA
Kayak Accessible, can freedive or scuba off of - full of fish. 5-30ft deep

The Resor - if you can get out there. Gin clear water. Super giant lobsters. The pictures on the site don't do it justice. On a good day you can get 100' of viz. and if you have a scooter you can have a blast.

This sounds like a great dive

Thanks for all the suggestions. What are some good charters to go out with around here?

 

[IanBrit]

USS Bass and U-853 win for me. The Idene and PT Teti are nice relaxing dives too.

 

[Saxatilis]

The Stolt is pretty fun. Not everyday you get to see an oil tanker torn in half. Its in 130 feet but has excellent relief all the way up to 60 feet. Lots of possibility for penetration if you are qualified. It sits on an angle which can make the dive very surreal.

Independence II for charters off of NJ.

I tried to sign up for the trip to the u853 with giant stride but its already full... do you know of any other charters going the that site this July? (Cant do 7/8)
