In 1985, a Navy hovercraft that measured 100 feet fell apart. The twin aluminum pontoons still stand 10 feet off the ocean floor and are in excellent condition. The hovercraft is quite unusual and would not be considered a dive site unless it was so close to Black Bart. You can still swim laps and glide up and down the stairs.
