On Stefano&#8217;s minibus, crammed with divers and equipment, we crossed the entire Ionian coast in an interminable journey of six hours.<br \/>\nAnd finally, we met Tony Scontrino, the last member of the team to join.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The next morning we met on time at the <a href=\"http:\/\/megalehellas.net\">Diving Megale Hellas<\/a>, managed by Roberta Eliodoro, who gave us the necessary support for the next three dives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The first scheduled was on the <strong>Fort Missanabie<\/strong> wreck, a British armed freighter torpedoed in May 1944 off the coast of Roccella Jonica.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-8270 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-fort-missanapie.jpg'><img width=\"1576\" height=\"1111\" src=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-fort-missanapie.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-fort-missanapie.jpg 1576w, https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-fort-missanapie-1536x1083.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1576px) 100vw, 1576px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"p1\">We arrived at the dive site after about ten minutes of sailing in a rubber dinghy. The heat was scorching and the sea slightly choppy. On the surface, a strong current suggested that both the descent and the ascent would require attention and commitment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Fortunately, as we went deeper the current decreased to allow us a quiet patrol on the bottom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The ship lied on a sandy bottom 78 meters deep and was broken into two sections which, resting on the bottom, formed a V. The stern half was in the navigation position while the bow half was upside down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Visibility was acceptable and allows us, as we glided, to admire the impressive view of this wreck.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We walked along the upper part of the stern, armed with cannons that were rising towards the light, and then descended to the maximum depth to see its majestic propellers slightly raised from the bottom. We continued on the starboard side to penetrate between the plates and I paused on the vaults covered with a myriad of shrimps. Some moray eels and a couple of big snouts dwell in the penumbra.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-8270 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-fort-missanapie-trim.jpg'><img width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-fort-missanapie-trim.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-fort-missanapie-trim.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-fort-missanapie-trim-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"p1\">When we reached the point where the ship is broken, we continued towards the bow to see the anchors, also upside down, in an unnatural position.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Our bottom time is about to expire and we opted to return towards the stern crossing the stretch of sand that connects it with the bow. It was a few meters path that was made easier thanks to a strobe light that they had positioned on the top of the ascent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In the afternoon, the wreck of the <strong>Pasubio<\/strong> awaited us, a cargo ship lying on the left side on a sandy bottom at a depth of 44 meters.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-8270 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-pasubio.jpg'><img width=\"1600\" height=\"1136\" src=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-pasubio.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-pasubio.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-pasubio-1536x1091.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"p1\">In 1943 it was sailing along the Ionian coasts of Calabria when it was hit by a torpedo launched by a British submarine, near Roccella Ionica.<br \/>\nWe hit the wreck on the right side forward at a bathymetry of 35 meters, near one of the two cargo masts, both broken.<br \/>\nWe continued our patrol on the deck, penetrating the holds, to get to the stern where we came across the large rudder and further down the propeller blades.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-4' class='gallery galleryid-8270 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-ruota-timone.jpg'><img width=\"1599\" height=\"899\" src=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-ruota-timone.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-ruota-timone.jpg 1599w, https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-ruota-timone-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1599px) 100vw, 1599px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-pasubio-timone.jpg'><img width=\"1599\" height=\"899\" src=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-pasubio-timone.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-pasubio-timone.jpg 1599w, https:\/\/www.underwatertales.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/xr-wreck-tour-18-pasubio-timone-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1599px) 100vw, 1599px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"p1\">On Wednesday we ended with a flourish with the <strong>submarine of the Regia Marina Ammiraglio Millo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">On March 14, 1942, while he was sailing on the surface off Punta Stilo, two torpedoes launched by an English submarine hit him in the center and aft, sinking him almost immediately.
