Dive Notes:

Map team gets GPS readings for the bow and stern of both the Zion Train and Miss Jenny. Team dropped on Zion Train, which is falling apart badly, hull in center has collapsed, the stern is twisted off and listing westward, while the bow is pointed toward the surface. Bow is 26' 57.762" N and 80' 00.440" W, Stern is 26' 57.779" N and 80' 00.451" W. Team then followed re-bar posts in sand northward to Miss Jenny. This barge remains intact, but is upside down. The hull creates a large smooth surface for algae hydroids, encrusting sponges, tunicates, and hard corals. Bow is at 26' 57.796" N and 80'00.450" W, the stern is at 26'57.804" N and 80'00.453" W. Team reported another Goliath Grouper on the Miss Jenny.
