Wreck of the Taiyo

Marovo Lagoon, Solomon Islands.

The Taiyo Fishing Boat is 300 feet long and on it's maiden voyage, it crashed into this reef and sunk vertically. The bow is in 5 feet of water and when you swim over it you can look straight down the deck nearly 300 feet. It feels reminiscent of the famous photos of the bow of the Titanic. This was photo was taken along the side of the bow at 30 feet.
