  • Are those blue things funnels? If they are why are there so many?

  • @spongegob28 The "funnels" are flotation tubes used to keep the ship upright as she was scuttled. Full description of the wreck is on the Gozo Diving page listed in the description

  • Added some still images of the wreck underwater to the Lonedolphin page on facebook

    Cheers

  • What's the deal with the blue things? I thought at first they were funnels, but there's way to many. Then I thought that they were like big air-bags like they use to raise a sunken ship, but they're TRYING to sink her. Then I figured that they must be like tunnels for the air to escape, maybe even with valves to make sure she sinks the way they want her to. Does anyone know about this? I'm really curious now.

  • @justforever96 They are floatation to make sure the ship settles on the seabed the right way up. Previous wreck - Mv Xlendi near this one turned turtle. It now lies hull up and not very interesting with superstructure buried in the sand.
