Notes du plongeur

Mama Vina is a small wreck off the coast of Playa Del Carmen, a little south. Not a lot of sea life, but some fish, As we arrived an swam along the starboard side, we saw a stingray swimming away and it swam back and away again. Some penetration into the hull and up a ladder into the pilot house. There was a an air pocket, so we bobbed our heads in and took off our masks for a few seconds. A lot of debris as we swam away and we followed a large turtle for a while swiming aft of the wreck. We also saw a forklift which must have fallen off a ship at some point.
