DIVING DESCRIPTION
Know Christa is splited into two parts. Lies with bottom up on a sandy sea floor close to Władysławowo harbour. It has hardly destroyed portside at the stern as also the stern superstructure. From interesting places to visit, are the four bladed propellers and the steering gear. In the passages between the sea floor and main deck small cod fishes have shelter.
August 2023 : the wreck is largely covered by sand. Only a small piece of the bow section and a slightly larger part of the stern protrude above the bottom. The propeller and rudder are still well exposed.
