Search     Is their a descent line down to the wreck? OC Dive Boat uses a Granny Line System to easily and safely get you from the surface to the wreck. Please use this line system for both your descent and your ascent. Please keep your hands on a line the whole time to and from the wreck and on the tag line at the surface. NO FREE ASCENTS OR DESCENTS! (Unless in an emergency.) Please control your ascent so you do not pull the whole line up with you.
