More model informationRose Castle went down on November 2, 1942, two months after Saganaga and Lord Strathcona, and on the same night as PLM, both struck by torpedoes fired by German U-boat U-518. Rose Castle and PLM were hit almost simultaneously and sunk within minutes of each other. With depth ranging from 100 to 150 ft, Rose is the deepest and coldest of the four wrecks, with temperatures ranging from 32F on the bottom to 45F above the last termocline in the middle of the summer. Despite the cold temperatures, the marine life on this wreck is stunning. She even has the multicolored soft corals!
Being the deepest, Rose is a lot more intact compared to her sister wrecks. The superstructure in the middle is intact with three levels of decks open for penetration. It is possisble to access the engine rooms and see one of the highlights of this wrecks - the telegraph. The forecasle on the bow is also in good shape.
