Vandenberg Sinks




Welcome to Southpoint Divers' new blog! Hopefully will be updating daily with pics of Vandenberg and reef dives.   M/V Phoenix was loaded up with 35 of our closest family and friends to watch the sinking of the Vandenberg this morning.  Around 10:20 AM, with a puff of smoke the Vandenberg sank about six and a half miles off of Key West.  The boat sank very fast, and seemed to orient as planned.  Southpoint Divers has been chartered by National Geographic to retrieve cameras and provide divers for video footage tomorrow...which means we will be diving the wreck a day before the public is allowed.  Sometimes the life of a dive professional is tough!  These are a few pictures from our second tour of the Vandenberg...just a couple of days ago.  Will post more pics from the sinking and hopefully diving tomorrow.  Will let everyone know how amazing it is as soon as I get to a computer.  Check back.
