Aquanaut
The Aquanaut is a 55-foot long wood-hulled tug that sank in 1967. The boat sits upright at a depth of 75 feet. The tug is intact and in near perfect condition. It rests on the bottom near the edge of the Gulfstream.
A variety of marine life, such as spiny oysters, arrow crab and mahogany snappers can be seen on the Aquanaut. Divers must use caution when entering as there may be hanging debris.
The Aquanaut is located about 1/2 mile south of the Western Sambo Reef.
