In addition to the wrecks of sailing and naval ships, the remains of numerous commercial ships are to be found in False Bay and along the Atlantic coast of the Peninsula. These include the Clan Stewart off Glencairn, the Lusitania off Cape Point, and the Kakapo on Long Beach.

Gary Mills has dived on many of these and will tell the tragic stories of at least twelve fine ships and their passengers, crews and cargoes.
