Acerca de L2D "Tabby" (Japanese DC-3)
L2D "Tabby" (Japanese DC-3) es un pecio de aeronave de profundidad media en la bahía de Subic, apoyado boca abajo y fácil de reconocer como un avión de transporte y no como un barco. Hoy funciona como arrecife artificial, con crecimiento incrustante sobre el fuselaje y una presencia constante de peces de arrecife pequeños alrededor de la estructura. Por lo general se bucea como una inmersión relajada en barco para buceadores recreativos que buscan una silueta clara, orientación sencilla y un entorno de bahía protegido. Las condiciones del puerto aún pueden teñir el agua y reducir la visibilidad, pero la corriente suele ser suave y el sitio es menos exigente que los pecios de acero más profundos de Subic.
