Gulf Fleet No. 31

The Gulf Fleet No. 31 is described as a cable layer that was part of the Gulf Fleet and also as an offshore supply vessel. The ship hit the reef and slid down the eastern reef wall until it got wedged on a hard-coral mound, where it lies today. The exposed reef of Shabruhr Umm Gamaar has claimed at least three shipwrecks, and the same reef also holds the Colona IV, a safari boat that sank during a storm in 1995.

The wreck is completely intact, with minimal structural damage, and the bridge still has much of its glass intact. The hull lies at an angle, with the stern higher and the bow pointing downwards. It rests on a fault in the seabed, and you can swim under the hull in the gap between the two edges. Natural light still reaches the hull, and the wreck can be seen clearly without a torch.
