Nice pics Jeff. I wish the water was that clear around here! Everything we see when we dive here is BROWN!!!

Jeff's still trying to get me to do that. He has Kyra totally convinced and chomping at the bit. For me, it's probably going to take some sort of illegal pharmaceutical. :D

Nice pix though, my friend! Are those ships sunk due to disaster or on purpose for artificial reefs?

Lake superior is beautiful. It's amazing how clean the water is up there. my wife and I went for a boat ride around pictured rocks, the captain said that there are a few boats at the bottom of that harbor.

Yeapers, if you would have taken the glass bottom boat tour you would have seen 2 of them.

The Fitz is off limits, no one dives that anymore. It's located off of White Fish.
These pictures were taken in Munising.

I didnt know it was off limits. My pa dove it years and years and years ago. He had this neat rock he found near it and there was like a bowl hollowed out in it cuz there was this little rock that went around and around and around in it till it was perfectly round. His dumb girlfriend lost the little rock though.

I'm not sure why they put it off limits, though it could be from the deaths of some divers or because of the theft from the ship (considered a shrine for those how died.)

I do remember it being somewhat unsafe. With the current the ship moves a bit, Could be the reason too.
