Concerning ther wreck of steamer Pernau S/S:
The position is: 56°18,223 N 012°28,128 E (ED 50-from the stern) ....that is on the northside of Kullaberg.
It is both possible to dive the wreck from ashore or RIB. It is broken down very much and there are only few bigger parts left.
When I dived that wreck in april and may 2003 the visiblity was very good (15 meters+) and there was nice maritime-life (deathmanshand, anemons, lobster, cod....).
You can swim from the Ablahamn some minutes along the coastline in NW-direction (to the left hand).
The first debris you will find on a deep of 9 meters, the stern rests 100 meters from the coast in a deep of 26 meters.
It is a nice wreck to make a "naturedive" or if you have bad weather and you cannot reach the other wrecks in that area around Kullen.

Kind regards Sven Gust from Bremen/Germany
