Don’t think I can add more words like, dont’do it, dangerous, stupid ect.....
However if you are not convinced, and don’t beleive that a hurricane affect a great deal more then the surface, here is what happenned in the Florida Keys while Hurricane Dennis was passsing through!
Divers discovered the USS Spiegel Grove had rolled upright, apparently courtesy of waves spawned by Hurricane Dennis.
 Hurricane Dennis fixes botched Florida reef
MIAMI, Florida (Reuters) Mother Nature tidied up a man-made mess off the coast of the Florida Keys when the force of Hurricane Dennis flipped a sunken U.S. Navy ship into the perfect position to help form an artificial reef.
Powerful waves and currents generated by the hurricane flipped over the 510-foot (155-meter) USS Spiegel Grove and set it to rest on its keel on the ocean floor, reef project managers said on Tuesday.
That was the position Key Largo scuba divers and tourism promoters had aimed for when they scuttled the 6,880-tonne hulk in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary in 2002.
"I’m flabbergasted," said Rob Bleser, the volunteer project director, after diving on the reoriented wreck on Monday. "Nature took its course and put it where it belongs."
Sandra, just a suggestion, but I would rethink this trip!
Take care and be safe,
Cornel
