Diver Down
Wreck Diving Off the Coast of Scituate

You’ve got a thing for adventure. It’s your middle name. Or one of them, right
after Fitzgerald and Lesley.
But we’ve noticed your repertoire of Cousteau-ish tales involving you and the open sea has begun to
dwindle a bit.
Here to lay the groundwork for the next chapter in your book of seafaring yarns comes
Northern Atlantic
Dive Expeditions, a shipwreck dive outfit now taking reservations for a two-wreck escapade next Sunday
off the coast of Scituate, Massachusetts.
Think of this as your reason to dust off that dive gear tucked under those spare towels in the closet (or to
finally fulfill that promise you made after seeing
Titanic, and get certified to dive).
Upon signing up, you’ll head to Salem and join the husband-and-wife captain team taking you off the coast
of Scituate for a five-hour odyssey involving two wrecks—one, a sunken oil liner; the other, a schooner
boat—both sleeping comfortably 100 feet under the ocean.
You’ll spend the day exploring inside the hulls and examining the wreckage, and maybe even coming up with
your own theories as to why they sank (the Bermuda Triangle won’t really apply here).
You’ll also be happy to hear that an onboard BBQ will be served in between wreck dives.
It
is Sunday, after all.
