Does anyone have any maps (more detail than SAN 1024) or reference books of the PE and surrounding area's coastline and wrecks. The main library has an interesting book by Morris (surname) - wrecks of Eastern Cape (sic) which is kept in a locked glass cage. I have read it for an hour or so. Fascinating reading and accounts from the past of wrecks at some of my favourite dive sites.

Any other reference works? or map sources (other than google earth)
Thanks
 
Hey Zane
Do you know about a book by Malcolm Turner- Shipwrecks and salvage of South Africa. Unfortunately I think it's gone out of print, but it's quite a good resource if you can get hold of a copy, especially since If I remember correctly t the author is a local PE chap.

I am aware of the book by Malcolm Turner. Manged to find a phone number on google for Mr Morris - book is called Bay of Lost Cargoes R300 order direct from him.
