shipwreck Romanian Transport vessel "Sulina"
article: Sulina – the ship which had been first Telling about this ship it’s hard for me to remain impartial. Because Sulina was first in my life. A man is a creature full of stereotypes. As first love defines the following relationships with the opposite sex, in the same way the impressions from the first sunk ship serve as one of the main criteria for diver’s opinion about further underwater objects. Exploring every next wreck you can’t withstand from comparing it with “your” ship and imagining numerous columns filled with pluses and minuses. For the years that passed since the first dive on Sulina, I and my friends had an opportunity to see more than two dozens of different underwater objects: from medieval wooden sailing vessels to sunk planes and sunk floating docks. The diving conditions were also very different: depths from 5 to 55 m, temperature from 0 to 30 degrees, saltiness from 0 to 40 per thousand, transparency from 0, 5 to 50 m. Some objects I only managed to see once. On other objects I had to work for several years. So whenever I’m asked about the most interesting wreck I’ve ever seen and which evokes the brightest impressions I reply, without acting against my conscience, -Sulina. ....
