Don't seem to be a lot of wreck divers on this board.

I don't yet have any favorites. I've been diving the wrecks off North Carolina this year. They're all so new to me that I still find them all terrific dives, even the artificial reefs.

Well I have only been on 5 different wrecks.

1. The Willie (Lake Michigan)
2. Milwaukee Car Ferry (Lake Michigan)
3. #6 Dredge (Lake Michigan)
4. Zebulon Pike or The General depending on who you talk to (Table Rock Lake)
5. Little Cabin Cruiser (Table Rock Lake)

There are LOTS that I want to see, but I cannot name them as favorites becuase I have never been there...

Sorry but I can't consider a wreck a favorite until I've dived it so here is my fav list of ones I've dived.

1. Shinkoku Maru(Chuuk)
2. Fujikawa Maru(Chuuk)
3. Yongala(Oz)
4. Spiegel Grove(FL Keys)
5. Liberty(Bali, Indonesia)

Honorable mention: Rainbow Warrior(NZ)

San Francisco Maru (Truk)
President Coolidge (Vanuatu)
Fujikawa Maru (Truk)
USS New York (Philippines)
Aikoku Maru (Truk)

as an aside, the USAT Liberty Glo wreck at Bali mentioned above - despite having no remaining artifacts or any available penetrations is one the all-time best night dives IMHO

I like it for the marine life. Didn't get the opportunity to do a night dive on it though.

I really like the Artificial Reefs in the Keys. I know they aren't really considered wrecks, and some day I'd like to go to the south pacific & see the wrecks in Palau & Truk.

For me, the best are

Duane
Spiegle Grove
Eagle
Bibb
Oriskany

I'd like to dive the Vandenburg if it's ever sunk.
