I have only dove this site a couple of times so I would like to see if anyone would be bold enough to help with this

Follow I-705 as it magically turns into Pacific Ave
Head straight on to Schuster Park way
Right turn onto "E" Dock street (first light after getting onto the ParkWay)

around and take a left onto "E" Dock Street.

Could be deeper.
Known Hazards: Very silty bottom "The Mud Pit"
Dive Site Description:
There is an upside down barge here that has the back side opened up to see inside "I would not try to enter it due to the massive silt here!"
I'm not sure of the size due to limmited vis. This is a great site to practice your frog kick or split fin helicopter skills. but I would like to hear others input on this site.
