Shore-entry quarry wreck with a Boeing 727 swim-through.
Shore-entry quarry wreck with a Boeing 727 swim-through.
A shore-entry freshwater quarry attraction built around a Boeing 727 swim-through, with easy dock access, submerged training platforms, and a shallow-to-moderate wreck profile. The site suits controlled Midwest scuba days, skill work, and overhead-certified exploration of the aircraft interior, with conditions shaped more by quarry logistics than by open-water surf.
