DODGER
 The Dodger is an unidentified wreck. She received her name from a
fishing boat captain who found her on the day the Dodgers won the
pennant.
The Dodger sits in100 feet of water. She is a very big wooden wreck,
which is mostly broken up, very low lying and provides excellent
lobstering. The first time I dove this wreck, I caught a 14 pound
lobster. The next visit produced an eight pounder, while on the
third I came home with another eight pounder. The ribs of this wreck
provide the perfect home for lobsters. Most charters don't run trips
to the Dodger on a regular basis because her remains are too small
for large groups of divers to explore, thus giving the lobsters a
chance to grow large. This wreck is very close to and inshore from
the Kenosha and the
Reggie Wrecks.

On 6-14-08 the Wreck
Valley ran a charter to the Dodger Wreck. A group of divers from
Tiedemann's Diving Ctr found excellent conditions with 20-25 ft
visibility. The group also discovered that much of the wreck is now
covered with sand. Still recognizable are the wrecks half buried
anchor, winch, and chain pile. Much of wood ribs are now buried.
Divers can still swim along her port side and then jump of onto her
starboard ribs.

 WRECK
VALLEY III
By Capt. Dan Berg
The most comprehensive, accurate, illustrated
collection of information, photographs, sketches
and stories ever written about the
shipwrecks
that lie off Long Island, New
York and New Jersey.
Soft cover, 8x10", 188 pages
printed in full color. $39.95 +P&H
The original Wreck Valley book was
published back in 1986. At the time it was not
only the first but the only book for area divers
that detailed local shipwreck history and dive
conditions.
Capt. Dan's 2nd edition was printed in 1990 and
became the most popular of his shipwreck
publications.
Wreck Valley III is a
completely new update, expanded and enhanced
edition of the
Wreck Valley books. Wreck Valley's
3rd edition covers the history,
legend, present
condition, aquatic life, and pertinent dive
information on over 140 shipwrecks.
This text includes over 550 illustrations,
comprised of over 400 color photographs, 111
black and white historical photographs, 35
sketches, 20 side scan sonar images and nine
3D underwater shipwreck illustrations.
 Capt. Dan completely changed the books format
and design to accommodate all of the research
and images collected in 30 years of local
shipwreck diving. The collection of historical
photographs alone would take years of
archive
research to locate and would cost a small
fortune
if purchased separately. Many of these rare
images have never before been published.
Wreck Valley
III
includes a GPS list of accurate artificial reef
and shipwreck locations. Divers, fisherman,
marine historians, armchair sailors or anyone
with a general interest in history, diving or
the sea will surely find this book informative,
fascinating, and the perfect addition to their
library.
