HMS VICTORIA in Lebanon - just got back

Outlaw · 8th April 2008, 13:32

Hello guys,

just got back from Lebanon where i have been diving the HMS VICTORIA. i will be posting a report here along with pictures and a small video that one of the Team Members took. am just waiting to receive them.

whatever i say about it is actually very very little to really give the "picture" of this wreck. its just awesome....

very tired, now, i'll be coming back.

i hope you are all well.

here is the video made by Per Bjorn. very good camera by the way!

here is me and Pim around 100m on our first dive. have a look at the huge canon pointing upwards. there are 2 even bigger than this on the bottom (front of the ship). please enjoy.
