The Chester A. Poling was a coastal tanker which carried heating oil. On January 10, 1977 the Poling encounter severe gale force winds and thirty foot seas, broke in two and sank. The stern has since been moved by another storm and now rests upright in the sand at about 100'.
This past Saturday, I got out to the wreck of the sterm for the second time this year. Overall on the day, we had some of the nicest conditions, with flat seas and overcast skys making for a very comfortable (albeit short) ride out. Once we were diving, things just got better with still seas on the wreck and 25-35' vis. I could write more about how good it was, but you can seee for yourself !

We went out with Cape Anne Divers who were again great. Thanks to Nick and Monty @ Scuba Shack for putting the trip together. |
