There is a snag/wreck that I fish on my friends boat that is about two or three miles off shore of the barnegat ridge. Does anyone know what wreck it might be. Also does the east ridge wreck and south ridge wreck have other names and what kind of wrecks are they.Sorry for so many questions but since I am new to diving I have a load of wreck questions and if I tried to figure them out my self it could take years and I am to impatient to wait
Thanks again
Doug

Hey Doug, can you be more specific on the area your referring to?

the east ridge and the south ridge arent actually ridges but sunken barges and boats that have not been identified. Many of them are wooden and of course the the east ridge is not to the east and the south ridge is not to the south....... just old fishing names from days gone by.........

check with the NJ Historical Divers and they may have more information but if you are looking for names that other divers will recognize like the Chappara or something that is not what is there....
