Early this week, and without any fanfare, the Royal Thai Navy hauled the RTN Kood -- a sister ship to HMS Khram -- out to sea and sunk it off Pattaya beach. Scuttled among Thailand's Near Islands -- a 45-minute boat ride from shore -- the 203-foot Kood's hull now rests in approximately 100 feet of water. Since it's conning tower rises to a mere 36 feet, the Kood appears to be easily accessible to most divers. If you want to learn more about Pattaya's third shipwreck, check out Aquanauts DC's website, which has loads of information about the ship and her sinking, including a cool video of her final topside moments.
