KAWANISHII H8K2 “Emily” Flying boat
The wreck of the Kawanishi H8K1 “Emily” flying boat lies upside down at a depth of 16 metres. She has a wing span of 38 metres and a length of 28 metres. She was a large aircraft, but is nevertheless a small wreck, but this does not prevent a great dive, especially with a camera. Check out the engines floats, cockpit and colorful interior as well as the encrusted wing sections. Makes a great third dive.
Length: 28,1 metres,
Built: after August 1941
Weight: 34.000 lb
