About The Betsy Anna Wreck

Also formerly known as The Ashington. She was built in 1892 and sank several yars later after foundering in Pool Bay enroute to Cowes for repairs. She took on water, broke her bow and eventually sank. This is one of the many great wreck dives on the South Coast. Large amounts of decorating corals and abundant marine life now envelopes her.
