Fearless, a 70 foot long fishing trawler, lies intact in about 80 feet of water just off Peter Island. She sank in 1986 due to old age and poor upkeep.

Wreck of the Fearless is probably the least popular of the BVI’s wreck dives. Although located adjacent to a coral reef on a sandy bottom, little marine life flourishes. Visibility is usually low because of the slightly silty composition of the bottom. The site is also a rough anchorage in exposed position in the Sir Francis Drake Channel.

The wreck is wooden, and after over 20 years underwater is now extremely fragile and close to collapse. Any form of penetration of the superstructure is extremely unwise.
