Sansun Maru
A Japanese supply ship about 30 m (100 ft) long lying in about 18 m (60 ft) of water and covered in marine life; one magazine calls it Kosrae's only wreck resulting from American attacks in WWII. The name and details come from travel articles only and could not be matched to a wreck database. Wreck – do not touch or remove anything; artefacts are protected and removing them is illegal.
