Geocache Description:


Credit River - Shipwreck Series

Lena
 January 1914



There are many shipwrecks around the world. Some very famous and others not so. Each however has it’s own story to tell. As you travel along the Credit River doing this series of caches, we have highlighted a number of these shipwrecks. During low water levels on these parts of the Credit River, you need to be careful in a canoe or kayak so as you don’t wind up in your own shipwreck. Besides the many large rocks along the way, there are also some other obstacles such as dams which should be avoided. All of the geocaches in this series have been placed on foot by walking in the water along the credit river. Whichever way you choose to search for these caches, use caution and common sense.

Lena
Shipwrecked near the Croatian coast, Lina is one of the most well-preserved wrecks in the Adriatic. The steel merchant ship was used to transport timber from Rijeka to Sicily before it struck an underwater reef and sank in January 1914. The entire crew was saved. Today, Scuba divers can view cabins, two masts, upper deck and holes in the lower part of the boat where the hull struck the reef.

The Lena Dive Wreck is situated in Bunbury and the wreck is an ex-fishing vessel that was confiscated by the Australian Government for illegal fishing. The vessel is in 18 metres of water and is 55 metres long, making her the most accessible dive wreck in the state for all levels of divers. The huge open fish holds make awesome diving as rays of light shard in through the openings, filling the chambers with light. A must dive for all people heading down south.
