BELCHER BARGE
Miami
This 195 foot steel barge lies upside down in 60 feet of water,
approximately five miles offshore. She was sunk by explosives on
November 29, 1985. Divers can enter the wreck through the twelve
three foot by four foot holes that were cut in the barge's bulkheads
prior to her sinking. In the sand off the barge's south side are
some large concrete sewer pipes. The barge and the concrete reef
attract quite a variety of marine life.
According to diver Don Scholen, by swimming for approximately 60
feet off the Belcher Barge's northern most corner, divers will find
the wreck of the Lady Free.
