Overview
Description
The USS Vermilion is a 470 ft ship that was used as a troop transport during WWII. The Vermilion cannot be seen in one dive or many dives. It's huge!!! This site even rivals the Spiegel Grove in the Keys. The amount of marine life here is amazing. Divers have been known to see lobsters crawling on the decks during certain times of year.
