A 100' long Navy hovercraft sank in 1985. The twin aluminum pontoons are still in good shape and rise 10' off the ocean floor. Although the hovercraft is unusual, it probably wouldn’t be a feature dive site, except it’s so close to the Black Bart. It’s still fun to swim laps around the structure and float up and down the stairs.

Mexico Beach Artificial Reef Association members and Florida Wildlife Commission produced a report that assessed the impact on the reefs. They found that the Varmar reef, which isn't shown on our dive map as it's off Mexico Beach), had suffered the most damage since it was in 25 feet of water. Only 35% of original reef material was left. The artificial reefs in shallow and medium water remained unaffected. Below is an illustration from that report which shows the path the hurricane took through the wrecks, reefs, and beaches of Panama City Beach.
