Renaissance Airplanes
Also known as: Renaissance Airplane · Sonesta Airplanes · Renaissance Island's Airplanes · Sonesta Plane Wrecks
The older plane, a Convair, was scattered by hurricanes, with the wing tip as the shallowest point and the cockpit around 22 m. The YS-11, sunk in the 2000s, sits upright as if taking off, with the nose at about 16 m and the tail near 27 m. Its seats and doors were removed before sinking, which makes it an easy wreck to penetrate. Large barracuda often hang under the wings, and banded coral shrimp live in the cockpit. JADS dives the site as a drift, and Masbango Reef lies right next to the planes.
