Within minutes in the
water the dark shape of Victoria’s massive ruder and twin props will
emerge from the blue. Portholes with glass still in place and the
battery of 6 inch quick fire casement guns. Victoria’s massive aft 9.2
ton turret is still in place with its barrel pointing to the flagstaff
that displayed the white ensign of the Royal Navy over 100 years ago.
H.M.S Victoria, named
after Queen Victoria, The biggest battleship of the British Royal Navy,
sank in 10 minutes, in a vertical position, killing 358 sailors of its
crew.
Today H.M.S Victoria
stands vertically, starting depth at 75 meters and reaching 145.
For those Trimix
Divers, this is by all means, the most impressive wreck dive in the
world.
