Unknown Torpedo Carrier – Diving In Lebanon Part 4

Published January 11, 2009 Filed under General By Phil+

This wreck is located approximately 4km outside the main port of Tripoli, and its identity remains unknown.

Used by the Vichy to supply submarines with torpedoes, she was sunk by either aircraft or sea vessel.  She now lies in about 60m of water, upright, and usually with very good visibility.

Torpedos lie all over the decks, and while the main bridge superstructure is missing, the wheel and steering mechanism are still intact.
