"Maryland fishermen and scuba divers may soon have a new destination just 30 miles off Ocean City as the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife prepares to turn a 563-foot Navy destroyer into a fish reef...Its final destination is the Del-Jerseyland Inshore Reef. It's about 30 miles southeast of Cape May, and about the same distance from Indian River, Del., and Ocean City, Md...Plans call for the Radford to be sunk in 135 feet of water. If all goes well, it will rest upright, with the top of the vessel about 60 feet from the surface. It would be the longest vessel ever converted for use as an offshore reef on the East Coast."
