| Before heading over before lunch I took some picures of the room and the resort. For lunch at the Blue Lagoon Dive Resort I ordered the grilled tuna with rice and tartaire sauce again. Stick with the known known. After lunch I took some more pictures. Went back to my room and studied Franko's Chuuk Lagoon Dive Map that I'd purchased in the morning shopping spree. Soon enough it was time to go diving again. Boat Captain: Ansauo Renis Dive Guide: Tryvin Aisek Monday afternoon, 9 May 2011 - Kensho Maru. After lunch we headed out at 2 p.m. to the wreck site of the Kensho Maru, a medium sized, five hold freighter. Tonnage: 4,861. Length: 116 metres. Beam: 16 metres. Launched: 30 June 1938. A torpedo exploding at hold 1 caused the ship to sink in 40 metres of water. Once in the water, we moved towards the bow. The starboard anchor is out with the chain leading around the bow and forward over the port bow, which implies the ship probable went down by the stern. The forecastle is dominated by the large artillery gun mounted on it. The lush marine growth seems to be taking on the role of combat camouflage. The double anchor winch amidships is large and impressive. The bridge is rather dark, and as we continued aft we saw the chart room. We entered the dark engine room, eventually finding two sets of three large cylinders of the main diesel engine. Pieces of machinery and control panels were picked out by our dive lights. After exiting the engine room I followed Tryvin as he went through another part of the superstructure, past the galley and a workshop. This time I got a bit stuck trying to exit a narrow passageway. Eventually I was able to readjust my gear and wriggle my way through. As we headed back towards the bow we came across another group of divers. I switched to the EAN57 stage gas and then stuck by Peter Fear as we worked our way back to where he'd left his stage cylinder near the base of the anchor line. We then started our ascent, and completed our deep, deco and safety stops. This was a decompression dive of 60 minutes with a maximum depth of 32 metres. |
