Looking for Bombardon Unit (Portland) images

Has anyone got any good images of the Bombardon Unit. I was on this on Saturday and got a good idea of how it lies and what it looks like but really wanted better examples. I don't really want images of it when it's afloat and fully functional, just images of this particular wreck.

Thanks

I know you didn't really want a picture of this unit out of the water, but this website has a pretty good picture of it during the war which will give you a better idea of its current lie.

Yeah, i saw that one but it's not exactly the most enlightening of images (Just looks like a lump really). I guess i'll just have to go dive it again but this time get there before it's all been kicked up by others.

Thanks anyway.
