A while back, Bob mentioned a lack of information on good wrecks in S.
Florida.  Here's a bit of information on one that, by all accounts I've
seen, might be considered good.  It's on my list of dives to do someday as
well as the basis for my first interest in mixed gas and/or multiple tank
diving.

The Hydro Atlantic has been featured in magazine and local news articles.
The following narrative comes from an online source, Scubaworld.Net.  If you
don't like it, blame them, not me.

"On December 7, 1987, a ship of huge proportions sank in a storm just one
mile East of the Boca Raton Inlet. The ship was being towed to  Brownsville,
Texas where it was to be salvaged. Instead it sank on our door step.  Today
the Hydro Atlantic is considered to be one of the 10 best dives in the
United States. Lying in 172 feet of water, the 320 foot long freighter is a
real wreck, not a diver prepared, artificial reef wreck. A huge crane stands
mid ship, with one of the ships main anchors at its base. The winch is still
on the bow and the engine is still in the engine room. This is a real
wreck!"
