A few posts ago a discussed the USS Kittiwake … a former US warship that will be sunk off Seven Mile beach to be an artificial reef for diving.  Awesome!

Well, this ship arrived in Cayman two days ago and will be sunk most likely (no official date yet) in the next week or so.  Of course, I am off island for this event 🙁

So, if you are on island anytime between now and the next few days, check out www.kittiwakecayman.com and the local newspapers  so that you don’t miss the sinking. If you are flying in to Cayman, try to sit on the left side of the plane (usually seat A) and you should be able to get a good look on the final approach.

If you are able to see this and take pictures, PLEASE send some to me (I’m looking at you David Wolfe …) or the link to your blog/Website.

Here is what she looks live just off the coast of Grand Cayman
