Some of my best and worst memories were onboard this ship. Always manned by a great crew from CO down. Out of the ships I served on nothing compared to this old girl there really is a kinship of anyone who served on her from Navy Army and Airforce there was just something so special about the old girl.

[@markquinn1104]

I remember when it was built and commissioned

Poor old lady she still had a purpose

[@scentedbodyscrub]

Lolno the ship is almost 40 years old. Outdated old and broken, decommissioning was definitely the way to go.

[@hevendor958]

the ship wasn't even outdated or neither broken the ship was launched in 1980 and was scuttled as a reef in 2018 you need to go check your history luke jakovcevic

Waste of $89,000,000. For only 34 years of service.Could of least scrapped it and made at least $500,000 on ferrous metal alone.

[@jorisvanswieten2995]

A lot of metal going to waste.

[@Will_CH1]

A reckless waste.

[@adonkeyoncrack]

How? Its now a world class dive site

[@Will_CH1]

@@adonkeyoncrack It was a well built viable ship that should have been placed in reserve. With the current political climate and tensions over china/taiwan, it is conceivable that we my need it. Instead we made it a playground for a handful of meatheads with scuba tanks.

Your an idiot it's helping marine life by being a home to many species plus grow coral on it

[@GMOHAN-ow3dj]

Many workers worked to build such Ships for several years but, they SINK for any reason in some Minutes. It's really worrying to see those moments 😓

[@STURMOVIKI]

Putin's Russia needs such ships.

[@GMOHAN-ow3dj]

@@STURMOVIKI Yes u r absolutely right

[@dogmannz]

What the hell was the point in sinking it on its side? Surely it would have been better to have it on the bottom upright?

[@hevendor958]

its called a reef

[@Randomstuffs261]

@@hevendor958 "ON ITS SIDE" it's a better reef when it's on its side

[@hevendor958]

yeah atleast i can see the whole wrecks hall side ways

[@paulharrison3763]

They stuffed up. It was meant to sit upright on the sea bed. I have dived it and can say that its still a great dive site. If anything it looks like a real wreck compared to ex HMAS Brisbane.
