BVI wreck of the Perseverance and Vagabond

Sounds like the men were quite energetic the last couple days! I wonder how energetic they were at 5 this morning when they were getting up for a 7 AM flight!
Bazza and I have been at the Spring Boat Show along with my son Chad, the last few days, so I will have interesting tidbits over the next few weeks about that. To sum it up there were 25 boats in the show, some were nice with great crew, some with very new crew who have no idea what they are doing, but very enthusiastic, some I did not think much of, and on from there. As usual, my blog caused a bit of controversy with a few who think that unless you spin everything positive and be a travel brochure, then they get very upset with you. More on all that later. I have to process it. It was interesting, and I have to develop a thicker skin if I am going to write things!
We saw all the yachts in the first two days, had various cocktail hours on different docks, and then made our way out Trellis Bay to have a great beef stroganoff the our guests for the last night.
I have managed to pick up an ear infection again, so it was off to the doctor this morning for prescriptions.

When we were out diving last weekend, we stopped by the vagabond Wreck that is on Fallen Jerusaleum. This is what it looks like from the aft sitting on the land.

There had been talk up until awhile ago that the insurance company was going to refloat and fix her, but that time is past. It really is not worth it now. This now is its final resting place view..

Come along for a tour with us, Bazza took the camera and went for a quick look around inside. Surprisingly, it has not been stripped as most wrecks get to be fairly quickly, the steering wheel is gone (Is that a nautical term?)
View of the bridge, down to the charts and everything still in there. I guess they did not have the appropriate charts out at the time!

This is looking into the depths of the boat, it is fully flooded

All the meds still around, really most everything is still on the yacht!

The heads even had the garbage cans next to them

Bazza seemed to spend quite a bit of time in the cabins, came back with these pictures



And a few pictures that he said he brought me back for a laugh but I had to downsize to even put it on here! Bazza!!!

One last picture of the wreck of the vagabond, with a warning sign. Apparently the boat had its fair share of cockroaches and rats enjoying the ambience!

Stopped by to take a picture of Perseverance which was settled up high still on Ginger Island, it has been there for a couple of years now at least. Pretty much stripped.
