Clinton Wreck

The 170 foot Dewitt Clinton is a former dredge barge, sunk by the Broward County Artificial Reefs Program (BCARP) on 12-May-1995 in 175 fsw. On 26-Apr-2008, the underwater gods smiled, resulting in favorable conditions for two CCR and two OC divers on Miss Conduct Charters. Follow the CCR diver as he tours the wreck in this four minute movie.

RBJ and Corey N Chris Wreck

The Ronald B Johnson and Corey N Chris is South Florida's most unusual technical wreck. The 130 foot dredge Corey N Chris was sunk in 265 fsw in 1986, and when the 226 foot freighter RBJ was sunk in 1988, she accidentally landed on top at a 90 degree angle. Years ago Captain Jim Mims made this drawing, and the wreck has settled over time. This five minute movie was made during two separate dives on 23-Sep-2007 from Avid Diver Charters.

All Rebreather Day on Scubatyme

On 30-Nov-07 fourteen rebreather divers boarded Scubatyme Charters for a day of rebreather only diving, put together by the Florida S.C.R.U.B.s. We visited three wrecks - the Jim Atria, 135 fsw, the Rodeo 25, 130 fsw, and the Captain Dan, 110 fsw. Watch this nine minute movie to see what a great day we had!

Hydro Atlantic Wreck - Revisited

This four minute movie of the Hydro Atlantic was made just two days after the one below, on 28-Aug-2007, from Avid Diver Charters. Two Optima rebreather divers begin the dive at the stern and make a complete tour of the wreck to the bow. The visibility was great that day, and we were swimming among large schools of bait fish and spotted one of the large goliath groupers that like to hang out on the wreck.

Hydro Atlantic Wreck

The Hydro Atlantic is one of South Florida's most popular technical wrecks. It sank during a storm in 1987, is 300 feet long and lies at 170 fsw. This four minute movie was made on 26-Aug-2007 as open-circuit technical divers toured the wreck from the bow to the skylights. The divers entered the engine room through a skylight, went down into one of the ships holds, then continued back to the anchor line at the bow.

Sea Ranch Reef

The reefs off Pompano Beach are home to a variety of marine life. This video of Sea Ranch reef was taken during just one dive, on 4-Aug-07 from Avid Diver Charters. We saw stingrays, featherdusters, yellowheaded jawfish, balloonfish, lobsters, Christmastree worms, scorpionfish, an angelfish juvenile, and schools of grunt and porkfish.

Ancient Mariner Wreck

This four minute movie stars two O2ptima rebreather divers as they explore the Ancient Mariner wreck. It was recorded over two days of diving, on 31-Jul-07 with South Florida Dive Headquarters, and on 2-Aug-07 with ScubaTyme Charters. The wreck lies in 70 fsw and boasts an easily accessible swim-through.

Rodeo 25 Wreck

The Rodeo was sunk in 1990 to honor the 25th anniversary of the Pompano Beach Fishing Rodeo and lies at 130 fsw. This video was taken on 12-Aug-2007 during a dive from ScubaTyme Charters. Watch three O2ptima rebreather divers tour the wreck in this four and half minute movie.

Lowrance Wreck

The Lowrance is one of South Florida's deep wreck dives, sitting in 210 fsw, and there is a lot to explore as she is 420 feet long. This two and a half minute video was taken during a 90 minute rebreather dive from Avid Diver Charters on 15-Jun-2007.

Doc DeMilly Wreck

The Doc DeMilly is a seldom visited artificial reef that lies south of Miami in 150 fsw. This four minute movie was made on 16-Jun-2007 from the RJ Diving Ventures boat. On this memorable dive (also my 400th!) we saw HUGE goliath groupers and a school of eagle rays.

Delray Ledges

This two minute movie was filmed during a three hour dive at an average of 52 fsw, from Starfish Enterprise of Lantana on 19-Mar-2007. Watch a variety of fish, a loggerhead turtle, a long-spined urchin, a green moray and a southern stingray.
