Due to the risk of silting within the wreck, maintaining neutral buoyancy and careful fin technique is essential to preserve visibility. This site is suited for intermediate divers, and monitoring depth gauges is necessary throughout the dive. As the wreck contains enclosed sections, divers must move cautiously to avoid snagging equipment on the structure.
