Boring, Mike

Mike Boring has been fascinated with shipwrecks since his first wreck dive off the New Jersey coast in 1971. Since then he has explored and photographed shipwrecks from the warm Pacific to the freezing Baltic Sea. Mike was a member of the team that recovered the bell from Italian Luxury Liner Andrea Doria in 1985 and he has participated three expeditions to locate and dive the Battle of Jutland wrecks. In 2003 Mike organized a team of divers to travel to Poland to dive the Wilhelm Gustloff, a German liner sunk by a Russian U-boat in 1945 with a loss of more than 9,000 lives, the deadliest shipwreck in history.
