Minerva

Also known as: Minerva - Bocabajo · Bocabajo

The Minerva lies keel up a short distance from the Sirio, which earned it the local nickname Bocabajo. Railway rails scattered on the slope are thought to be part of its cargo. An opening on the starboard quarter leads inside, and a large crack opens the hull almost in two towards the bow, so experienced divers can swim through it from stern to bow. The propeller and rudder, still in place, are covered in brightly coloured gorgonians. It is a deep technical dive on the steep wall of Bajo de Fuera.
