DE HOEK GALJOEN ZONDER POEN 68A
Nederland, Zeeland
Galjoen zonder Poen is a wreck that lies a five minute swim off shore at a depth of 25 meters. The wreck stands upright and is partially covered with sand, with the bow and the rafters as most striking features. The starboard side of the ship is recognizable, while the port has completely fallen aparte. Dive at low tide, when the wreck is easier to find. If you want to dive at high tide, dive only along the shore. This area is nicely covered with sponges and purple star tunicate.
Particulars
Climb down the stairs into the water and swim in northern direction, while compensating for the strong current. When you reach a trench between 23 an 26 meters you're getting close. The origin of the wreck is unknown. According to most sources, it’s a fishing boat.
Warnings
Dive at low tide. At low tide the wreck lies less deep, visibility is better and you can swim along with the current while searching. Faiway! Don’t make a free ascent.
