Loading...

Another victim of the man-of-war reef, Lucy’s barge is located close behind the famous HMS Proselyte site. The sunken barge lays scattered around the sandy reef location. As you discover the various parts of the barge that lay hidden around the reef, you may also encounter the local porcupine fish and barracuda’s. The many parts of the wreck expose the internal structure, allowing divers to view parts of the barge including the drive shaft and propleller. If you search closely enough you may still find the ships bell.

Although the site was grand with amazing viz, the shop I went with was unprofessional for the DSDclass and weighted me incorrectly, so missed half the dive.. Must return!!
