The Miracle of Life is one of the newer wrecks to be dropped off this section of coast. It was acquired and sunk in large measure due to the efforts of Dixie Divers http://dixiediver.com/ of Deerfield Beach, FL.. This is a large and very complete dive shop. The most complete in this area in my estimation. I went out and free dove the wreck within a couple of hours of its sinking. Imagine trying to breathhold dive on a small wreck in moderately strong current in brown poor visibility of about 30 ft.?! It was a challenge finding it and then deciding which way to turn to see the front of the vessel. Anyway, the following video was shot in exceptional blue water visibility well in excess of 100 ft.!




More about the history of acquiring and sinking this wreck. It is costly and time consuming proposition. They pulled it off however.

Note: don't attempt scooter free diving without adequate pro training and careful experience development for the special area of free diving. It isn't that hard to get killed otherwise!
