Blimey can we just put a little perspective on this "wreck" it has been described as a Hand Glider and it is in an inland dive site near Carnforth.

It didn't land there by mistake, it was put there for people to play and dive around. Lisa wrote in the silt which has settled on the "wreck" in a few weeks it will be covered over again by all the flailing fins


PS. I don't condone destruction of wrecks, either writing on them or removing things from them, but this isn't a "wreck" as such.

PPS. I am in the wrong section

It might be LOL

It doesnt take long for it to silt over again and as it is not 'carved' into anything, does no harm as far as I'm aware, but I could be wrong, if so ...sue me

"Yay! thank you" get real FFS it's the fabric on a hang glider, It doesn't rust. It's Capernwray not the Prince of Wales and if you want to take a camera in there then you really need help.

It's not possible at the moment as I'm engaged in salt water diving but when I return to wash the kit in Capernwray I'll sign every bit of crap just for you.

It won't be as neat as Lisas though.

Bleedin' 'eck with all this debate you'd think that we'd strayed into the DIR section!

Silt writing is ok. I took the photo to highlight how YD is making its presence felt not to start a debate on the merits of silt writing in a training quarry on a hang glider put there to amuse divers.

Except in certain Florida Caves.

At least it's not a 5-foot 'Porg' as written in white paint on the harbour wall at St Abbs.

IMHO Someone writing in silt is much less of a problem vs people physically removing chunks of the wreck with a lump hammer so that it can sit gathering dust on their mantlepiece vs being able to be seen by umpteen other divers.
