Hi Henry,
Great thanks for the fate of this old ship.
A good end, better than the torch.
Best regards,
Yvon

Hi Yvon, great photo!

Since the mid 90's she lay abandoned and half sunk in port of St Georges, Grenada. Sometime in 2007, after many years of neglect, the ship was pulled out of the mud during a cleanup of the lagoon (mostly to make way for a new marina) and was scuttled about half a mile off shore to be used as a dive site. She is now one of the most popular wreck diving sites in Grenada.
Dived her myself in 2012. She lies intact and upright in about 35 meters of water.
