Wreck of tug Chemainus

Oops. Don't know quite how but I nearly forgot about this dive . Back was troubling me and it got left in the dust. Rob, Bruce and Bill dove on the tug, north of Lund in Ragged's not so long ago. Lots of life in and on the remains of the wreck purported to be that of the  tug Chemainus .There is also enough left to make it a great afternoon dive.
