After
lunch skipper James took us over to Smith Rock. We had a great time swimming
around the wreckage of the former Liberty ship Marietta Dal which hit Smith
Rock and sank in 1950. Those old Liberty ships were welded together and had
a bad habit of breaking in half! The
wreckage is strewn all over the place at about 12 metres.
We missed the bulldozers this time but saw a lot of interesting
country and a good mix of fish. |
