Go Deep with Dad<br />
If your Dad’s adventurous consider diving<br />
or snorkeling! Known as the Delray Wreck, the<br />
Inchulva rests about 150 yards off the south<br />
end of Delray’s Public Beach in about 20 feet<br />
of water. Grounded in shallow water the ship<br />
sank September 11, 1903 in an unnamed hurricane.<br />
The 38 crew members did not know<br />
land was just 100 yards away. Nine sailors<br />
died that day and were buried in the dunes.<br />
The Delray Wreck is a 386-foot steel-hulled<br />
steamship schooner. There are three pieces to<br />
the wreck visible today each about 200 feet<br />

Dad<br />
Feel Special<br />
Dads are awesome. All<br />
year long they work hard,<br />
play hard, and quietly<br />
take care of business.<br />
Father’s Day is our chance<br />
to tell Dad how much we<br />
appreciate him.<br />
from each other about 150 yards east from the<br />
boat ramp. The Delray Wreck is great for snorkeling<br />
or beginner scuba divers. You can rent<br />
kayaks, paddle boards and mask and snorkels<br />
from Delray Beach Water Sports. They can even<br />
give you a tour of the wreck! Call 561 272 SURF.<br />
