MV Katsu Maru

Also known as: Katsu Maru · Katzu Maru · Katzmaru

The trawler Katsu Maru No. 25 struck an unknown object and flooded while being towed towards Hout Bay. The wreck is now broken up and its remains are covered in corals. The upright Aster lies alongside, so two wrecks from different decades can be seen on one dive. Depth and currents make it a dive for advanced divers.
