Wreck "Vest"

Built in 1939, the wreck "Vest" was a Russian motor-hydrographic vessel. It served as a mine planter during WWII. On the 27th of June 1941, the wreck "Vest" was sunk by a marine mine at Laine shoal at the mouth of Hari kurk (Moonsund). Two crew members died as a result of the accident. It has an 860 ton displacement, a length of 56.8 meters, and a width of 9.3 meters.

If Wreck "Vest" dive is meant to be a decompression dive, decompression gases are usually carried in side-mounted cylinders. Many wrecks, however, are difficult to penetrate with both back-mounted and side-mounted cylinders, necessitating the employment of a different configuration or leaving decompression gases outside the wreck prior to penetration. This means that if a diver exits the wreck at a different position than when they entered it, they may be unable to relocate their decompression gases. Many visitors consider this to be one of the Best Diving Sites in Estonia.
