MV Bos 400

Also known as: Bos 400 · Bos400 · The Boss 400

The barge was once among the largest floating cranes in Africa, and Scuba Shack calls it South Africa's largest wreck. Two large sections have collapsed into the sea, while the crane section remains stuck on the rocks. Divers can explore the cavernous stern, where kelp is slowly taking over the steel. Rock lobsters, nudibranchs and shysharks are common, and the dive suits introductory and advanced wreck divers alike.
