One of two new films made for the Norfolk Wildlife Trust and available to view at their visitor centre at Cley Marshes. Cley marks the western end of the North Norfolk chalk reef but is also home to a first world war wreck, the Vera, and an ice age wooden reef of ancient oak trees. Volunteer surveys have recorded over 400 species... and of course there are really thousands more as divers can only spend short periods underwater exploring it.

Are currents very strong? And do you see any sharks

It depends what you're used to, they can get far too strong to enjoy a relaxing dive. We recommend diving at slack - some outline rules for that here; www.1townhouses.co.uk/pelagicpixels/tripreports/veraandrosalie.htm We don't see very many sharks, a few lesser spotted catsharks - which are some of the most laid back fish you could ever meet :-)

if you did this dive off wheybourne beach then you are most defintely diving the rosalie wreck, not the vera as it is off of cley and you can almost walk round the vera at a spring low tide. i think you have been misinformed on this wreck name.. as the rosie is the one with the spare prop on the seabed on the port side seabed next to the hull and the con-rod from the 3 cylinder engine protruding from the surface , next to the single boiler, at low and high water. this is a wreck that i know extremely well and dived countless times and have researched well.

Hi, as the whole name of the film suggests this is off Cley beach. Compared with the Rosalie very few people dive the Vera but it is still a very interesting wreck with it's own iron propeller. You can see that this one is on the seabed (flattened plate aside), whilst if you know the Rosalie well you'll recall that the one there is up on the remaining internal deck. The Vera isn't as intact as the Rosalie where you can complete a whole hull outline but there is still a considerable amount of it left. You can see the wreck outlines here; www.1townhouses.co.uk/pelagicpixels/tripreports/veraandrosalie.htm

nope, that's the rosie i'm afraid. i think you've got your video footages mixed up in your compilation. the spare iron prop is on the seabed next a deck plate and has been since i first dived her in 1992.

Also, i forgot to mention that i logged over 200 dives on that wreck when i was instructing, so i do know it very well, some would say almost intimately...lol. it's footage of the Rosie, off of wheybourne beach. 100%. sorry.

This is from Cley. And before we get too deep into discussion, the Rosalie actually has 3 boilers and the Vera has 2. Both wrecks show conrods, on the Rosalie they are behind the row of 3 boilers that run E-W and on the Vera the engine and main boiler are separated. The Vera is low lying spread across or emerging from the seabed but the Rosalie has a great deal more structure left - so the boilers, spare prop and prop shaft rise off a platework deck that still sits 1.5-2m off the seabed.
