Diving the Superior Producer | GoPro HD+ | Willemstad, Curaçao
Music in this video: SAIL - Awolnation.
On the 26th of September 2016, I made a dive on the wreckage of the Superior Producer. This ship sunk almost 40 years ago in 1977 a bit off coast near Willemstad, Curacao. It was overloaded with jeans and whiskey and it started sinking in the harbour of Willemstad.
They decided to drag it outside of the harbour before it touched the ground at 30 meters of depth. A day later all cargo was taken by locals and devided under them.
Nowadays it is known as one of the most beautiful wreckages of the caribbean. But it is threaten by the proposed construction of the second Mega Pier and will probably be lost in the near future...
I saw a lot of big Tarpons in and around the wreckage, saw a few Baracuda's and entered the hold, the staff room and the cockpit.
It was the most awesome dive of my whole trip to Curaçao and I have to give a special thanks to Chris Joris, my buddy for this dive and Scuba Do Diving for all the good care.

Superior Producer Dive Curacao with Goby-divers.com
in 1978 just outside the busy port of Willemstad, off the island of Curacao Superior Producer was sank filled with clothes and drinks, headed for Venezuela for the Christmas shopping season. It was overloaded and left against the advice of its captain. The cargo shifted in the oceans swells and quickly sank on a even keel.
He sits on a sand plateau 60m/196 from the shore, at a depth of 32 m/105ft.
After all these years on the bottom of the ocean he has been transformed full of vivid corals, tube sponges, you can see barracudas and tarpons swimming around.
The marine life fully appreciate the impact this wreck has on the undersea environment.
2015 the coolest wreck in Curacao will turn in to a Block of Concrete for construction of a Mega Pier for cruise ships !!
