  • The Superior Producer is a terrific wreck. At 165 feet with a huge cargo hold and multiple decks, its almost impossible for recreational divers to take it in on a single dive. We recommend taking a couple dives on it if you can. Also, there is a reasonable reef there with some good sea life. It isn’t what we would call “spectacular”; but it is respectable.
    Additionally, we are sorry about the length. It is our longest shore dive video. We spent quite a bit of time covering the bow, cargo hold, bridge, lower decks, engine room and stern. We also walk you through the check in process and cover a damaged exit ladder situation. If you get the opportunity to dive it, please add a comment and let us know what you saw.

      Thanks Chris! Indeed it is large. Not quite as large as the Hilma Hooker; but more special given the things that need to line up to dive it. :-)

    Thanks for all the work you do producing such wonderful diving videos, I don't even dive the Caribbean (SE Asia) but I feel like I do watching your content. You are the best scuba-tube channel by far 🐟 🐠 🐡

    Fantastic video. We’ve been to Curacao a couple of times and wanted to dive this wreck but weren’t able to. This made me feel like I was there.

      You are too kind. We are glad it gave you a feeling for the dive site; but definitely do it on your next visit if you can. The video pales by comparison to the real thing. :-)

      Thank you so much Hamilton. Indeed, it is a terrific dive. :-) I don't believe any of our groups lost a weight pocket. Actually, we live on Bonaire and there is a Facebook group for lost and found stuff over here. Is there one for Curaçao?

    Have you dived Atlantis? It's right beside Baose. One of my favorite wall dives in Curaçao

      We didn't get a chance to visit that. We did visit a few new sites and really liked Playa Parasasa. Will add that to the list for next time.

    21:11 This might actually be a “White Encrusting Zoanthid”

      Excellent spot! We'd like to say that was a test, but it was a miss. :-) Thank you for letting us know. We have updated the master file, so it will be corrected when we publish an update. Unfortunately, RUclips doesn't let us edit videos "in place"; so it will have to wait for an update.

      @@TropicLens glad to help. I always had zoanthids in my aquarium and for the longest time I thought they were corals. It is interesting to me that they are actually Cnidarian Invertebrates like Jellyfish and Anemone.
