some 6-7ft of water.©Leigh Bishop 2003

Above; With the surface ripple flowers drift across the exact spot where HMS Vandal
was lost. The divers of the 2003 expedition can now leave the wreck in peace, the
family's of those lost as well as sole survivor of the Vandals crew Larry Gaines can now be
sure we have a positive grave.
