USW008: Coln

This is a view through the bow section of the wreck of the SMS Coln in Scapa Flow. This vessel was a Dresden-class light cruiser, completed in 1918, and belonging to the German High Seas Fleet. She is now one of only 7 wrecks from an interned fleet of 74 unsalvaged vessels that still remains in Scapa Flow.
The Coln now lies in 25-35m of water, and is a beautiful, relatively intact wreck.
