Plan: penetration to a maximum of 160 bar. Back at this great wreck after Japan; in 2009 behind the guide, this time we do the penetration properly. First we visited the engine room; a large part of the engine is still in there. The wreck was just as disorienting as last time because it lies at 45°. The bow is heavily dented from the collision. It remains a top wreck.
