About this site
Duane is a 327-foot (100 metre) Coast Guard cutter resting upright on the bottom off Key Largo, and one of the area's well known wreck dives. The structure is easy to navigate, its surfaces are covered in coral, and visibility is excellent.
Eagle rays are frequently seen here. The site is graded advanced, with a deep descent, strong currents and penetration opportunities.
Its twin, the Bibb, is an intentionally sunk artificial reef nearby, and the two wrecks are often explored together.
