I was shut out on six-gills, but I remember the wrecks of the car carrier Vanlene and an old steamship, the HMCS Thiepvel. That was awhile ago (20 years?) so they may not be worth diving any more. Is anyone in your group interested in wrecks?

I last dived the Vanlene in 2013, and it was still an amazing wreck to dive. We hit it on a good day ... 70+ foot visibility.
