Ok FYI I have plugged in the numbers set at the beggining of the post (30.17'.79 87'18.72) The red square icon isthe Southern most (turret) of the ship indicated by sealark numbers also notice the preloaded reef icon (sunken wreck) that comes in the GPS...also notice the scale and how are apart from each these numbers are....I know is a large vessel butIjust <U>wouldn't trust</U>a map, gps's or other fixed numbers unlessI see it/ mark it myself.

Again thanks for the numbers sealark I know you are a life long diver and know your waters very well.Hope this representation/ pictures and other posts about the US Massachusetts location help other boaters to stay on the safe side.

watch the bottom machine...when your boat is sitting on top of the mass...store number and thats where she is...but seriously...stay back a good bit..even in slick calm conditions you wont see alot of it...if there is a little wave action you more than likely wont see it at all....just be careful that thing has done a number on some fiberglass around here

My numbers are on the SW end there is another Turret about 100 feet to the NE of those numbers. The NE one is somewhat deeper than the SW one I will say at low tide the NE one is about 2 feet underwater. The whole wreck has sunk a little in the last two years and is hard to see even the SW turret that is sometimes about 6 inches underwater. I wouldn't suggest running your fathometer to find it unless you put someone up on the bow as a lookout and it's crystal clear. If you are approaching the wreck from one of the sides you will be on the turret before you can see the wreck on the fatho...:doh:doh
