We have watched Diver1111 search and it seems to us to be about 1/3 of a mile x 1/3 of a mile area where they spend most of the time.
This calculates to about 70 acres.
With a 15 foot visibility this would require 4500
circles to cover all of that lake floor.

If our lot is any indication of what the underwater edge of the island is like, the boat probably slid for a while down a rough surface from this extinct volcano. We assume the boat had some buoyancy even after filling with water.

Our hat is off to diver1111 with the effort he is putting in. It must be difficult to think you have found the target so many times only to be disappointed.
