i think if you'll run a search, you'll find that various people have posted GPS coordinates for the sunken ferry and some other dive/fishing sites

I have the coordinates, are on GPS on boat in bay, and will try to get it posted when I return from a sailing trip in a few days but I don;t use GPS to find it, I line up the mountains and then use my sonar to anchor on it. It has broken apart now and gives a smaller sonar signal but still is obvious when you are close to it. Not a great dive by any standards since it was sunk in completely the wrong area and no thought what so ever was put into sinking were it should have been sunk so you must catch the wreck on a high slack tide or you will have a crappy murky dive with lots of current.

Hi Aquademia
The GPS coordinates to the ferry are 28 02 32.76N by 111 13 45.6W. I found them by doing a search on GPS in the fishing forum. I have been to the ferry in the past and yes it can have allot of current.  Is just been a long time and i had no way to keep the info.
