Cleaning of MV Xlendi underwater signs
The Scuba Diving Unit of the Malta Red Cross - Gozo Branch continued the MV Xlendi underwater signs project, which had been commissioned by the Ministry for Gozo in an effort to make the dive site a safer place.

Besides installing a new set of signs, this project endeavors to keep the existent underwater signs free from debris

The new signs further supplement the other signposts and are located both on the inside and the outside of the wreck.

The signs are intended to warn divers of potential hazards they might face if the wreck is penetrated.

Technical diving techniques were used during the installation process so as to ensure the safety of the divers who took part in the project.

The Xlendi is located at ix-Xatt l-Ahmar, Gozo and lies between 30 and 45 metres underwater.
