Chrisoula K wreck (tile boat) - tired, but out in rib, discovered I'd forgotten my computer, but kept close to Bertie most of the time. Wreck only recent, lots of tiles. Camera strobe not working, so take Hero off mount & take some movies by hand. Big moray eel, nice nemo fish in anemonies, some good swim throughs. Feel some chest tightening half way through, but better later - very tired! So will skip tonights night dive. Very impressive propeller.

Chrisoula built 1953 as Dora Oldendorff, sank August 1981 carrying granite floor tiles from Italy to Jeddah.
