The Sea Emperor

 
Depth: 45'-70' Experience: Open Water

The shallow draft barge loaded with concrete pipe and debris heeled over as she sunk and scattered the cargo around the bottom where she lay upside down.

The Sea Emperor lost her load of concrete culverts as she listed while on her final approach to her final resting place. These concrete pipes are home to a number of critters that have taken up residency on the Sea Emperor. There are 2 green Morey eels, a plethora of Sting rays, a pair of 400lb Goliath Groupers, and some nurse sharks that inhabit this wreck. In addition to the local residents, you can often see turtles and schools of fish, especially yellow tail snappers. You can also follow the trail of rocks that leads to another wreck called the United Caribbean.
