Good news that another wreck site being added.

Malta has some great wrecks and sites to explore and most of the dive schools/shops provide a very high level of service. If anybody is looking for a family trip then there are also a number of hotels and operators that are very good from young children .

Please keep us updated as to how P31 goes

Thanks

Ian

HI all,

Finally, I managed to get some photos of the new wreck that will be scuttled hopefully for this diving season. The P31 is laying in a dock with her sister the P30. Both ex Army patrol boats could be seen in the attached photos. So far I have no dettails about the scuttling apart from the fact that the required permits were granted.

will keep this post updated as I get more info.

thanks
lud

Cool i really enjoyed diving the P29 because it was so new it was a nice relaxing dive with lots to see ok the history wasn't there like the Maori (sp) but still it was very good.

Thanks for posting that Lud.

Interesting to note how they talk about "drowning" the ships instead of sinking them
