Wwii Wreck, Timor

Timor

In a bay of Semau, across from Kupang, there is a Japanese ship from 1942. The ship was at anchor when it was bombed, and the hit is still readable: twisted metal and a warped hull. Sketches made when the ship was found describe it as a supply ship.

The map places this point at −10.22337, 123.40599 and lists a depth of 15–40 m. A finer figure for the hull has not been published. Entry is by boat. Do not take pieces from the ship.
