 Additional Information

English (Translate this text in English): The three brothers is a great wreck for beginners because it offers a range of depths to choose from. Due to the fact that the wreck had been covered by sand for most of the time after her sinking she remains intact. The wreck however is on the verge of exploding due to the large amounts of sand still inside her. Independent ship wreck preservationists have offered to remove the sand free of charge but the DNR refused. The wreck sits upright and is broken up in the shallows. When it was rediscovered in 1996 the name was still visible on the back. Today however zebra muscles have taken over. The wreck is completely covered in Zebra muscles so gloves are a must. The site is usually marked. To get to the island a boat is required or a ferry service can be used but once their this dive can easily be a shore dive. If you have questions ask the rangers. The ranger station can be located about a hundred yards west of the wreck. The island offers many other interesting activities as well.
