History

History:

The wreck, measuring 17.5 meters in length and 6.5 meters in width, has an unknown date and cause of sinking. It lies at a depth of 28.5 meters. While the wooden sections have deteriorated, the metal components have remained intact.

The most distinctive feature that sets it apart from other barges is its raised bulwarks. The presence of these raised bulwarks suggests that the barge was used for transporting animals. Another barge with similar characteristics is located nearby at a depth of 54 meters.

Diving Equipment Information:

The equipment to be used for dives includes standard gear required for fully equipped dives: mask, fins, weights, buoyancy control device, scuba tank, wetsuit (3–5 mm depending on the season), regulator, and gloves. During the November–March season, a 7 mm neoprene suit, semi-dry suit, or dry suit is required. Diving with this equipment is possible at the Gallipoli Historical Underwater Park.
