Is there a good website somewhere with collected information on the Yukon? For example, a description of the orientation of the wreck, depths of various parts, reports from divers, etc. A web search turned up a few San Diego dive operations and a pre-sinking site on the ship, but I haven't yet found any detailed diving-oriented info.
The reason I ask is that I've been invited to dive it in a few weeks. I'm concerned on two fronts: (a) being fairly recently OW/AOW certified, I don't want to push it in terms of my capabilities and comfort level, and (b) from searching past messages here I see it's pretty chilly down there even this time of year (~48-49 F), and the best thermal protection I own is a 7-mil wetsuit plus vest. Thanks for any pointers to info or reactions.
