Location: Wreck of the Princess Sophia, Lynn Canal, Juneau, southeast Alaska The wreck of the Princess Sophia is one of the great tragedies of this area.

Location: Secret location, Admiralty Island, southeast Alaska I can’t disclose the location of our second dive of the day. It’s too dangerous for our friends – thousands of Alaska king crabs. Happy to report that we did our first scuba splash this morning on the wreck of the large steamship State of California in Gambier Bay, Admiralty Island.  It was an […]

Admirality Island New site for everyone – unbelievable! Crab orgy! Literally thousands of juvenile Alaska king crabs at 15 feet.  Wide variety of life here. From the non-divers in the group – sadly no grizzlies but plenty of sea otters, humpback whales, eagles and incredible mountains.  Annie. It is fun to do an exploratory dive on a […]

A 180ft Fishboat Pinned Vertically to a Wall!

The amazing thing is that there is a ledge on the wall 285 feet below the surface and as the ship was sliding down the wall, the stern wedged itself on the ledge and the ship came to a dead stop in a vertical orientation! The stern of the 180ft ship is at 285 feet and the bow is at 110 feet! It’s not often one gets to see a large fishing vessel pinned vertically to a wall! I did one of my most memorable dives ever here when my instructor and I splashed to 285 feet on Inspiration rebreathers. The water was so clear that we could see from the stern all the way to the bow looking straight up towards the surface through a cloud of rockfish swimming around the mast (and no, I wasn’t narc’d!!).
