Question Which wreck would you dive upon, given the choice

Is there one wreck that you would really want to dive upon?

What is it about the wreck that fascinates you the most?

Just once, the Andrea Doria. It's the Mt. Everest of wrecks. A friend of mine did it and it was very difficult, expensive, and calls for top-notch tech skills. He wouldn't trade the experience for anything.

Hmmmmm, that would have to be the wreck that no one else has ever dived. And no, I wouldn't tell anyone where it was!!!

Oh, go on then. Here it is:

The wreck I would like to go and see cannot be dived upon due to depth, but I would still like to go take a looksy in a submersible before she is completely consumed by rusticles....

Titanic.

She is so enigmatic and holds so many secrets and so much sadness.

Other ships to do with her that I would like to see are Britannic, Californian & Carpathia.

Three more ships that I would have to include Wilhelm Gustloff, Goya & Steuben in the Baltic.

Being a non-diver though, I only have the documentaries to watch and try to absorb the immense size of the ships, their history and how they ended up on the bottom of the seas & oceans.

I'm with you Ally.. The Titanic would be the epitome of a wreck dive for me if it was possible.
