The Persier 50.16.96, 03,58.03
330 ft (30m) 5,382 tons torpedoed in 1945 by U-1017. This wreck is broken but parts sit up to 10m proud of the shale seabed at 31M.

The hull has collapsed but u=you can enter the engine room and the holds. Lots to see including the three boilers, 8ft anchor, prop shaft tunnel and other 'ship-shaped' bits (the three guns & prop have been salvaged). Lots of life again, pollack and sea fans especially.

You can dive this wreck from the dive boat Sunfish. You can contact Mike of Sunfish Charters on 07968-262421 or email click here to email  or visit website Never been on Sunfish before, then check out our Testimonial page on website
