Wreck Site

The 65-foot tug, Born Again, was sunk in 1991 as an artificial reef in artificial reef site #7. The tug sits upright on the bottom in 95 feet of water and its 40 foot tower rises to within 55 feet of the surface.
The hole is filled with twenty-one 18-foot long pipes that often hold good numbers of lobster. The wreck is in good condition and attracts a wide variety of marine life. Common species include amberjack, snappers, groupers, and triggerfish.
