My 100th Dive – The Vandenberg – Key West
Vandenberg is a name that all wreck divers in the US know. Since I started diving just a couple of years ago, I have dreamed of diving on this ship and when we bought the RV, we knew Key West would be one of our first major stops. I spent countless hours researching the dive…
