SPECTACULAR underwater pictures have revealed the 600-foot long remains of an American luxury ocean liner-turned US troopship which was sunk by mines in WW2. The stunning shots show the vast 13,000 ton wreck of the SS President Coolidge at the bottom of the Pacific, but the intrepid divers overcame the dangers of deep sea wreck diving by venturing inside the hulk. Some of the luxurious interior is still visible under huge layers of silt while huge shells were pulled from the wreckage as-well-as ordinary everyday items, including bottles and pots left untouched since she sank off Espiritu Santo

SPECTACULAR underwater pictures have revealed the 600-foot long remains of an American luxury ocean liner-turned US troopship which was sunk by mines in WW2. The stunning shots show the vast 13,000 ton wreck of the SS President Coolidge at the bottom of the Pacific, but the intrepid divers overcame the dangers of deep sea wreck diving by venturing inside the hulk. Some of the luxurious interior is still visible under huge layers of silt while huge shells were pulled from the wreckage as-well-as ordinary everyday items, including bottles and pots left untouched since she sank off Espiritu Santo, Vanuatu in October 1942. The images were captured by Canadian photographer Christopher Hamilton (35) from Windsor, Nova Scotia.
