>BSAC 21 Trip to Ullapool and Loch Broom Day 2 June 2009

After having a leisurely breakfast in Ullapool we decided to head out to the summer Isles for better visibility we decided to drive round to Altandhu and launch at the slipway in Old Dornie Harbour leaving it a bit late and only 1 hour before low tide we managed to navigate the rocks and out into open water. It was flat calm conditions with no wind and we decided dive the Boston Stirling a trawler that was wrecked on the Southern Shore of Tanera More.

Not the Easiest wreck to find the mark on the Admiralty charts is in the wrong bay and it took a bit of finding as unless you are on a Spring low water you wont see the top of the wreck and it is covered in kelp and right in by the reef. If you look for this rock face with the rocks on the hill behind the wreck is here.

The Wreck is well worth diving is very shallow and intact and is ideal for novices with a maximum depth of ~ 12 metres the bow lies into the shore and ship lies on its Starboard side. The first picture is looking up into the Bridge, the Second Sea Hares – Aplysia punctata mating there were many on this wreck. The final two photos are of the stern section.
