 Additional Information

English (Translate this text in English): The Mavis is a Japanese Sea Plane sunk during World War II. Access is by boat either from Honiara (1-2hrs) or Tulagi (20 min). Local knowledge is needed to find the wreck. The Mavis is a 4 engine aircraft and sits upright at approx 30M. Lion Fish frequent the wreck . Divers need to watch their bottom time to avoid deco and also need to maintain good buoyancy as the bottom is soft and easily stirred up by careless fins. The wreck is reasonably in tact except for the starboard wing which was lost (probably from bombing). A bucket of bottles and ammo cartridges have been lifted out and onto the fuselage.
