Before you arrive
Access notes
Book and verify certification, recent experience, equipment, gas, emergency oxygen, communications and evacuation arrangements directly with Yanica. The map coordinate is a deliberately broad offshore area point for display only—not the wreck, an entry point, mooring or navigation waypoint.
Plan within your training
Conditions and hazards
Open Atlantic swell, variable current, changing visibility, boat traffic, fishing gear, entanglement, sharp metal and unstable structure. Penetration creates an overhead environment.
