You can hit the Tower in 80fsw or so. The boats usually tie off at about 90-100. There is a large room immediately below the top which has nice views out it's windows. The top of the structure slopes down to 185 fsw. There are lots of spots to penetrate if that's what you want to do. On the bottom there is quite a bit of debris which is good for lobster ( I can usually get 2 or 3 between 3 & 5 lbs). There are plenty of pelagics cruising the area, tuna and so on. You'll also find large schools of cod or pollack on the wreck. The vis is often 50 feet or better and quite a few times it has been around 90'. It's a pretty dive, not reknown for artifacts but well worth doing at least once. Mark /\/\/
