An American diver has been arrested for penetrating the
Yongala, the wreck of a steamship. The Yongala is a popular wreck dive
off Townsville, Queensland, Australia. It sank during a cyclone in 1911,
resulting in the death of all on board. Despite being told twice that
he was not allowed to go inside the wreck, our hapless diver ignored all
warnings, was arrested and fined A$2000. If you dive wrecks, particularly
where there has been a loss of life please be respectful of this, says
the Beetle, and follow local guidelines.
