Did a dive in Door County last week to see the Frank O'Conner. It's in 65' of water and is a real easy dive. The weather was windy and we had up to 6' waves and a few good sized rollers coming in.
It's a 300' ship and the stern has a lot to see with the boilers and prop visible with tons of other stuff and quite a few fish although non-game.
The bow had anchor and chains to see with a quite a bit of debris scattered around and in-between.
It was mainly a fishing trip so I really only got in one dive.
Visibility was up to 50'. Water temperatures ranged from 65F at the top to 48F at the bottom. It was a real fun comfortable dive.
