Somali wreck dive 2017, Seahouses

Nice to hook up with Durham City Scuba on this one, mid range viz, meant it was a better dive for rummaging than video. Spent a good 20 mins looking for lead soldiers again no joy :( The Somali was a big cargo ship, 6809 tons, 459ft long and with a beam of 61ft, with the power to go with it. Quadruple-expansion steam engines with five boilers pushed her along at more than 15 knots on her passenger and cargo voyages for P&O to and from the Far East. The Somali was heading for Hong Kong when she fell victim to a squadron of Heinkel 111 bombers on 27 March, 1941. At the time she was carrying 9000 tons of general cargo, including non-ferrous metals, shoes, hay, batteries, medical supplies, bicycles, heavy lorry tyres, several 4x4s, some coin for Hong Kong banks, a small quantity of mercury and tons of toy lead soldiers.
