About the event
Weather permitting...
Let's take the club RHIB down to Plymouth and dive a couple of old favourites.
The HMS Scylla (F71) and the SS James Eagan Layne.
HMS Scylla (F71) was a Leander-class frigate of the Royal Navy (RN). She was built at Devonport Royal Dockyard, the last RN frigate to be built there as of 2016. Scylla was commissioned in 1970, taken out of service in 1993 in accordance with Options for Change, and sunk as an artificial reef in 2004 off Whitsand Bay.
SS James Eagan Layne was a liberty ship. She was beached and sunk during the Second World War off Whitsand Bay.
