I swear someone moved the wreck. A few weeks before, there was a nice, convenient Chlorox bottled on a rope tethered to the wreck. Two weeks later, we couldn't find it. But we did see some other interesting junk on that one. Funny thing is that we found that boat no problem diving from shore about three years ago. But in August '05, we just went back and forth and back and forth at 54 feet...no boat. Maybe the eels snatched it.

I'm soooooooooooooo going on that trip this year.

And, hopefully, the line that leads down there will still be tied. It was loose this summer, and I re-tied to a rock. But there are a lot of people trolling around there (I found a full downrigger and ball wedged in the rocks at about 50' in July or August), and it would be easy to break. It's not very thick. There's a series of Chlorox bottles (bonus points for two Chlorox bottle references in one post?) that lead down to that wreck from the end of the line from about 50 feet. Let's go!
