Wreck lies just offshore, in Calve Sound. Very silty, even sea-squirts silted-up. Circumnavigated the wreck and looked inside. Came up with 90 ats left. | Steel 60, ABLJ 2 | |

Short second dive. Snorkelled out from shore and down cliff to wreck. Up to bows, down to stern and surfaced. Vis good for this wreck. | own | |

16 Apr 1987 | Pelican | Calve Island, Tobermory Bay | Mull | Scotland | |

Rumours of good vis on this wreck scotched. Just as I remember it, but explored more systematically. Bows must have looked impressive when it was afloat. No engine, boiler, screw or prop shaft. One sleepy wrasse and several varieties of sea squirts. Alison and I have finally wiped out the memory of Loch Lomond cliffs. |
