Best Wreck Dive Florida tour the Lady Luck wreck

The Lady Luck wreck was sunk in 2016 in Pompano Beach Florida. In my opinion this is the best wreck diving site in South Florida. This footage was filmed 2 years ago, this dive was about 2 weeks after the ship was sunk.
The ship is sitting in 130 feet of water. It is 320 feet in length and has many penetrations for swim throughs. NEVER enter an overhead confined space unless you are advanced trained for wreck or cave diving.
This was filmed on a Gopro Hero 3 and edited in Premiere Pro, the music is from Epidemic sound.
Please let me know if you have ever dove this wreck, and what is your favorite wreck.

This is my first narrated dive video...please let me know if you like this format.

I hate it, just kidding

[@darienduranza1874]

Very nice video I have a question I’m trying to become advanced open water what cane level you need to do this dive ?

[@rosigimenocounseling]

Great format. I liked the clear and fun narration like, “hey don’t touch that!” because that’s what we all were thinking and what we usually say in our head when we see that. I also liked the explanation of why we don’t go into certain areas. Makes me want to go visit it more now. But after nitrox certification 😉

[@JoeOceanside]

Cool thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed. It's a cool wreck, in sure it has quite a bit more growth but still is a great dive! The other wreck I really enjoy is called the Tracey it is located near the Jay Scutti in Fort Lauderdale

[@eamonshields2754]

Your videos are narration are awesome !!

[@JoeOceanside]

Thanks!

[@felipecaraballo2916]

Great video. Really entertaining. Love the narration btw

[@JoeOceanside]

Thanks for watching!

[@mikepark5884]

It’s pretty much covered now. I watched a tec dive training video with John Chatterton (yes Shadow Divers) from 2018 on this same ship

[@JoeOceanside]

Oh yeah, they crust over quick. I was there recently and it had alot of beautiful coral on the upper deck

[@felixcat9318]

Thank you for this interesting, informative and entertaining video, your videography, presentation and narration are good. It's fantastic to see a modern wreck clean of all marine growth and sea life, and the casino card sharks were fabulous. There would have been a huge, expensive operation to clean the vessel of asbestos, oils, and any othet contaminants prior to being cleared for sinking. Likewise, there are probably no snag hazards or overhead dangers in the vessel, though treating it as though there are would be advisable. Your advice not to go off searching on one's own is very sound. Unless you've studied the drawings of the ship's layout and remembered it as part of one's dive plan. Subscribed.

[@JoeOceanside]

Awesome! Glad you enjoyed the vid. It is an awesome wreck dive

[@nes.torfernandez]

I can’t go down there lol, what certifications you have? Nice video and I’m from Jupiter FL

[@JoeOceanside]

I am advanced open water. I got the advanced because some dive boats will not take you on wreck dives without it.

[@jasonstanfield4644]

Just curious because I have never done any diving but why do you not touch the areas you commented on....if I was to guess it's has to do with interrupting the growth of coral or something

[@JoeOceanside]

Yes, touching certain types of coral could damage it, and other types like fire coral could sting you. This ship was sunk very recently before this video so there was no coral on it yet.... so the touching was not really a big deal, just not a good habit. Thanks for watching and good question too!

Not oil tanker, sludge tanker Spent 28 years as crew on her as known as M/V Newtown Creek

[@ernestlcolemanjr]

I have a old GOPRO4 & I was wondering would it work in that depth. Guess I know now.

[@JoeOceanside]

Yeah if you have the dive housing it should work good

[@aidend5455]

That’s so deep though 😮

[@arnabkumardey6604]

Are the Engines removed from the ship before sink??

[@JoeOceanside]

Yes, anything that may contain oils or material harmful to the environment is cleaned out before sinking. Thanks for watching

[@Richard1976]

This is 40 meter deep?

[@JoeOceanside]

It's around 38 meters to the bottom. Most of the dive we spend between 25 and and 30 meters, on the main deck and wheel house area.

No, did not use a red filter. And this was set on 1080 60fps and all other settings in auto. This was on my old hero 3 about 4 years ago

@@eamonshields2754 this particular trip was on a dive boat that dropped sent the dive master down to attach a descent line.

[@eamonshields2754]

@@JoeOceanside Gotcha, did he tie off to the wreck itself ?

[@JoeOceanside]

@@eamonshields2754 yeah he went down and clipped a descent line to one of the railings on the ship.

[@arnabkumardey6604]

Engine??

[@JoeOceanside]

Engines have been removed so they do not leak oil into ocean

[@finchberg1781]

I thought max depth was 100 ft for advanced

[@JoeOceanside]

Hi Remy, 130 is max depth for recreational divers

[@JayMerchantPhD]

Why shouldn't that guy touch things?

[@JoeOceanside]

Hi Jay, in this video it's not a big deal, I'm just joking. This wreck has no coral growth yet. However, on wrecks or reefs with alot of coral, touching can cause damage. Or you can get stings from fire coral on your hand. Thanks for watching!

[@JayMerchantPhD]

@@JoeOceanside Thank you for explaining. I didn't know that.

Oh is that what it was, cool

[@ghost1_axrs779]

Lucky ship? I THINK NOT

[@JoeOceanside]

Haha, yeah. Actually it was sunk intentionally to create a reef. So no bad luck, it was planned

[@ghost1_axrs779]

@@JoeOceanside Oh. At least its becoming a reef.

not a wreck
