As suspected there´s no longer any boymarker on Frankenwald and lying between 28-44mtrs depth she´s not easy to find.
We used the fishfinder on Dora Mac to locate the wreck and once found we dragged with an anchorhook over the wreck. Once hooked in the wreck we used the long rope as guide while descending and then relocated the rope to Frankenwalds forward mast whose top is 12mtrs below the surface.
The backside of this is that lots of divingtime is used for locating the wreck and relocate rope. Setting a maximum depth of 33mtrs the expositiontime is no more than 25mins.
Nevertheless allthough influencies from covid have reached all way to Frankenwald we managed to find the wreck and do some great dives.
