MV Rozi

The Rozi is proof that a small wreck done well beats a big one done badly. Built in Bristol in 1958, she spent decades as a working tug — much of it shoving ships around Malta's Grand Harbour after coming to the island in the early 1980s — before being sold, stripped of engine and propeller, and scuttled in 1992 off Ċirkewwa point, originally as scenery for tourist-submarine rides. The submarines are long gone; the divers never left. She sits bolt upright on sand at about 34 meters against the base of Ċirkewwa's reef, complete in silhouette from bluff bow to tug's rounded stern, wheelhouse open and mast standing. Because she is compact, divers actually finish her: a full circuit, a pass through the wheelhouse, time hovering off the bow for the classic photograph, then back up the reef wall in a natural multilevel profile that also suits shore entries from the point. Three decades down, she is Malta's most thoroughly colonized wreck — walls of damselfish above her, morays and octopus in the fittings — and the traditional companion dive to the nearby P29.

她是如何沉没的: Deliberately scuttled as an underwater attraction off Ċirkewwa, 1992.

环境条件: Upright, intact and heavily encrusted; among the most complete small wrecks in the Mediterranean

穿越式潜水: Limited. The open wheelhouse and short deckhouse passages are simple; the engineless hull below is confined and best admired from the openings. 进入任何封闭式环境均需专项培训——至少取得沉船潜水认证，进行完整穿越须完成技术沉船培训。

建议持有证书: Advanced Open Water

水流: Mild · 能见度: 20–35 m

海洋生物: Clouds of chromis over the mast, moray eels and octopus in the deck gear, scorpionfish on the rails, painted comber and cardinalfish inside.

危险因素: Depth at the sand, boat traffic at Ċirkewwa, and swell on the shore exit
