You know, I don't think it counts if you sink your own ship to call it a dive attraction. I mean the whole appeal of a sunken ship is the romantic tale behind it. Maybe it was sunk in an epic battle against overwhelming enemy force, or sneakily scuttled by a stealthy sub. Or it could have been a Ship loaded high with spices headed for oll England carrying the fortune of a family in its belly, only to fall victom to some fell force of nature. or the savior of manny, bringing imagrents to the new world to beging a new better life in the land of hope brought down by dastardly pirates or just an errant spark burning the ship to the waterline while survivors watch as there dreams go up in the conflagaration.
anyway the point is when you buy a old millitary ship and sink it specificaly so people can go look at it underwater, that does not count NSW government!
