USS John Penn
IJN Azumasan - 210 feet
USS Aaron Ward - 238 feet
IJN Kawananishi Flying Boat - 143 feet
New Zealand Navy vessel Moa - 138 feet
USS Kanawha - 185 feet
IJN Susako Maru - 300 feet
USS Atlanta
IJN I-1

I don't think the Sasako gets dived much, we did it in '95 and I got 305 ft, on air!
The Azzumassan gets to 290 ft around the debris of the stern, an amazing dive when conditions are good.
There are a few Kawanishi's in the area of Ghavutu, along with lots of Catalina PBY wreckage, and nearby are the LST342 and Japanese destroyer and it's tender. We encountered crocodiles in that area.
The Moa is a real lovely dirty little wreck, lots of squeezing and crawling.
The Ward is a classic, a true shipwreck look about her. I shot the first video of her in 95.
And don't forget the Tama Maru, a cute little IJN supply ship in 250 ft, west of Tulaghi.
There are a bunch of others, but I don't have my old logs here.

Cheers,
Jason.
