Micronesia PacificOil and aviation fuel dribble from this 454 foot cargo vessel in 200 feet of water. Ship lies with a 45 degree list to the port side. She was attacked by nine planes from Bunker Hill, and was hit by a 1,000 lbs bomb and a solid torpedo hit. She burned and quickly sunk. The No.1 hold contains only a few crushed 55 gallon drums and there is a large car too. There is a 10 foot long aileron (paravane) used for mine sweeping hanging off the port side. There is a large hole from the torpedo hit on the starboard side of the hold. There is a stern gun, and the ship's planking is burned from the fire. The ship's safe was salvaged in recent time, but its contents were not publicized.
Today the Amagisan Maru lies on a gentle slope with the bow in less than 30 metres and the stern in 58 metres. The wreck has a 45 to 50º list to the port and faces back towards the southern end of Uman Island.
This is an interesting wreck, it's only a pity it is in such deep water. There was a fuel tanker truck on the deck when the ship went down. It has slid off the deck and lies on the sand next to the forward hold. The forward masts has fallen over and hit the cabin of the tanker, crushing it.
There is a large bow gun still intact, and the anchor can be see lying out on the sand with the chain running all the way back into the ship. The forward number 1 hold is mainly empty except for a few empty fuel drums. Hold number 2 contains some aircraft wings and more barrels. At the rear of the hold is a car with its cab mostly intact.

Canada Atlantic (North American coastal)Lost 18 January 1942 while enroute to Halifax to join a convoy to Britian. Vessel was loaded with war suplies including munitions and ingots of copper and bismuth. Commercially salvaged in 1952 for the copper and bismuth. Current is the major hazard. Dive site is influenced by the significant tides of the Bay of Fundy to the west. Slack tide dives highly recommended. Current can be deceptive. Divers may experience no current at the surface yet find bottom current very difficult to handle. Underwater scooters (DPV's) will be useful. Visibility can be expected to be good, however, lighting conditions will probably be dark. Vessel was opened by salvors using explosives and cargo was removed with surface grabs. Penetration of some sections is possible. Munitions of various types dominate the dive site and should not be handled.

United Kingdom Atlantic (European coastal)This area of reef covering approximately one square mile, is an abundance of shipwrecks and reefs ranging from 8m to 80m. There has been more loss of shipping here than on any other comparable reef on the entire south coast of Britain, with over 110 ships and more than 1,000 lives lost.
Located less than one mile from the launch site, the Manacles, one of the best dive sites on the south coast of Cornwall, offers some of the most exciting diving in the country.
