Blue Water Wreck (MFV Mabini Padre)

Named for the water it sits in rather than the ship. The furthest offshore of the group, which is why it usually has the best visibility and the most fish on it, and why it is the longest boat ride — an hour or more from Serasa, weather permitting. Like the Cement Wreck it lies in Malaysian waters off Labuan and is more commonly dived from that side. Position here is approximate.
