TRUK LAGOON "NIPPO MARU" WRECK

Medium size freighter resting upright with a considerable list to port. Stern buried in sloping reef incline. Very interesting cargo of guns, guns mounted aft. Tank trucks, radio equipment, ordnances and multiple supplies forward. Deck cargo consists of 3 field artillery pieces, a tank and a truck. Very good wreck.

@brucekirk89 Nippo Meru, it is in the title. Maru means Ship in Japanese.

Is it just me or does he have a weird breathing pattern? Sounds as if he was holding his air at times... Anyways nice wreck. And yeah dive responsibly didn't see you guys carrying any backup light.

Truk was my all time favorite dive sight. The ships are historical and the reefs that inhabit them are stunning... A must do for avid divers!
