Building Trees

October 21, 2020

I built the tree for the Dive Gear section. All the multi-subject pages have exploded into multiple single-subject pages, and everything then needs to be re-organized. It is very fussy and time-consuming. The worst part was doing the Dive Sites section, because that involved not only organizing things logically, but also geographically. Dive Sites and Artificial Reefs are all tangled up in each other as well, which was fun to sort out. Now up to 1058 pages and posts, with just the Artifacts section left to do.

Later ...

I finished putting in the Artifacts section. The total number of pages now stands at 1163, although I'm sure that will go up as I find things I missed.

Three Sisters

Type:: shipwreck
Depth:: 80 ft

The "Three Sisters", as she is called, is an unidentified wooden-hulled vessel. She sits in 80 ft of water some 13 miles south of Atlantic Beach Inlet. She sits on a sandy bottom, spread out over a small area. Her boiler and a 4 bladed propeller are still visible. Wooden beams and planking spread out from the boilers aft towards the propeller. Occasionally some artifacts are found, mostly brass fittings. This is generally a decent wreck for lobsters and spearfishing. This wreck is in a main shipping channel, and large vessels make large wakes, so secure all gear.
