Minnetonka wrecks

[scubafreek864]

Did some more wreck diving yesterday on Minnetonka.  Terry, Doug, Wesley, and I hit the lake in the morning around 8:30.

First wreck was the Barge in Wayzata bay.  Not much more that 5ft vis on that one.

Second was the Como.  Vis was a little better on this one, but not by much. 5ft.-10ft.

Third was the Twin Engine Cabin Cruiser in Wayzata bay.  Vis was about the same as the Barge. 5ft, maybe a little more.  I expected to see a nice clean wreck, but saw a perposely sunk/discarded cruiser that didn't take the time to make it safer for the environment.  SHAME, SHAME on who ever put that down in the water, leaving it on the trailer ??? and with a fuel tank still hooked to the motors, and a battery besides.  NOTE:  The regestration numbers are still visuable, and can be traced back to the owner of the boat.

Then hooked up with Diverqueen, and hit the Hercules tug wreck.  That was the best vis of the day.  Even with all the cloud cover, you could still see 8ft-10ft.  Great little tug.  Too bad the wheel house area is gone.
