In co-operation with the Federal and Tasmanian Governments, Devine Marine Group provided the coastal trader ‘Troy D’ as a dive wreck for Triabunna/Maria Island in Southern Tasmanian waters. The government had strong pre-requisites for an environmentally friendly sinking and we had to maintain strict guidelines for the complete removal of pollutants and hazardous materials. The explosive technicians employed on the project have been involved in many similar vessel sinkings and complemented our ship preparation as the best that they had encountered.
