Songkla/signora

A team of divers from DJL have returned from another trip looking for wrecks, this time we were in songkla. This was the area that the japanese landed the mainstay of there troops and supplies during there landings in Thailand from which they launched there attacks into Malaysia and ultimately Singapore. The team were looking for any evidence from that period and were rewarded with a find on the first day, a small cargo vessel in only 20 mtr. This ship had some serious damage with the bow and stern blown clean off the wreck lis two and a half hours out of the natural harbor.We have another 25 marks in this area and plan to return in the near future as the hooker fisherman have told us some of the marks are  big

Another Wreck located by our team

we set out at 12 oclock on the night of 15 nov 2006 the forecast was for 1 mtr waveheights and steady for the next 24 hours unuasual for this time of year we were off to investagate a mark from captain daoo a hooker fisherman so we were quite excited about the prospects of what we would find we arived on the mark at 0700 an were copnfrounted with a lot of palm trees standing upwright in the water the fishman do this as it atracts smaller fish and sqiid the same as flotsom or jetsom but for us it could be an obstical as the leaves are tied to a line and weighted to the bottom that will reflect the same as a wreck will on our sonar anyway we picked up a large return straight away and droped a shot on the mark we kittred up and jumped in the vis was great all the way to the bottom at around 50 mtr and at 35 mtr i could already make out the shape of the ship she apperes to be a small cargo vessel about 40 mtr in length and 5-7 mtr beam there is a engine room evedent amid ships but no sigh of the wheelhouse and the cargo seams o be bried in the silt that makes 6 wrecks in 6 months not a bad hit rate
