Additional Information

The USS Vermilion is a 470ft ship that was used as a troop transport during WWII. The Vermilion can not be seen in one dive or many dives. Its Huge!!! This site even rivals the Speigel Grove in the Keys. The amount of marine life here is amazing. Divers have been known to see lobsters crawling on the decks during a certain time of year.
