| Duik op wrak El Aguila. Wrak lag er zeer mooi bij en veel groupers gezien.
Ook op het wrak hebben we twee loszwemmende murenen gezien en 1
zat er onder het wrak. Dit was een mooi foto-object (zie hier onder)..................................................................................El Aguila (The Eagle) is a 63m/210ft cargo boat that rests on a deep sand basin between two large coral outcroppings. The ship was intentionally scuttled in 1997 by Anthony’s Key Resort to make for a new premier dive site. While originally settling intact and upright in 30m/100ft of water, the fury of Hurricane Mitch severed the ship in three in 1998. In October 2005, Hurricane Wilma scattered the debris into its current arrangement when the midsection completely collapsed. Presently the bow section remains upright in its original position, the midsection is a tangled mess of collapsed walls and swimthrus, and the stern rests 90 degrees on its starboard side. |
