This was a VHB54 Hopper Barge that was not '�powered'�. It now lies in the ships graveyard outside of Torquay after being scuttled in the early 70's. She lies deeper than recreational divers would enjoy and this makes a great tech dive site. Take a look for the cogged wheel that was used in the mechanism used for dumping. The hull is penetrable and the tow cables still hang across the deck. It's a dark dive with very low vis but it adds to the mood!.
